Spider-Man fans furious as Tom Hardy's Venom replacement already teased

Really Sony?

Sony seem to be doubling down on Venom despite the end of the Tom Hardy trilogy of films.

According to HollywoodHandle over on Twitter, Sony is currently working on an Agent Venom film.

Venom: The Last Dance is, apparently, the final part of this series saying goodbye to Tom Hardy. For now.

For those unaware, Agent Venom, in the comics, is Flash Thompson who has returned home after a stint in the Iraq War where he lost his legs.

After becoming attached to the Venom symbiote he becomes Agent Venom and turns into a superhero.

It’s clear that Sony Pictures sees Venom as their superhero blockbuster despite the lack of critical acclaim and the latest entry stalling somewhat at the box office.

Without being able to use Spider-Man themselves, the studio is doing everything they can to mine the comic book history for the next big thing.

But how can Agent Venom exist? Well, we need to do some spoiling of Venom: The Last Dance.

In the finale scenes of the latest film, we see a soldier with the last name Thompson bitten in half by a Xenophage.

Then, in a post-credit scen, a cockroach nears a vial containing a shred of the symbiote.

This could mean that the symbiote jumps to the cockroach, then to Thompson saving his life and bonding with him instead of Eddie Brock.

And then Sony keeps on flogging the Venom-infused dead horse until they finally admit that it would be better for everyone if they just let Marvel do its thing for a bigger percentile share of revenue.

Then we wouldn’t have to deal with awful films like Morbius and Madame Web.

This might just be a one-off film with no plans for a franchise, however Sony is so desperate to finally get their hands on an MCU equivalent that I wouldn’t be shocked if they pumped money into this being the next big thing.
