Venom 2’s Tom Holland Spider-Man Changes Are Good For The Future

Venom: Let There Be Carnage included a shocking post-credits scene featuring Tom Holland’s Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man. But the actor appears to have actually had his role reduced in the movie, which is good news for a future crossover. The Venom sequel was busy enough by positioning Tom Hardy’s Venom face-to-face with Woody Harrelson’s Carnage. The movie delved deeper into the comic book symbiotes, setting up a number of different variants to show up in the future of the franchise.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s post-credits scene was undoubtedly the high point of the movie. The recent reveal by director Andy Serkis that Venom 2 almost had more of Holland’s Spider-Man is certainly going to generate even more chatter, specifically with how the Sony movie decided to handle its MCU connection. While it would have been exciting to see Holland have a bigger role in the movie, Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s changes to his role are great for the franchise’s future.

Tom Holland’s Small Venom 2 Role Means A Big Spider-Man vs. Venom Faceoff Can Happen


Holland appeared in a small role in Venom: Let There Be Carnage through a Daily Bugle report that Eddie Brock and Venom were watching on the television, after the duo was transported to the MCU. Spider-Man: No Way Home then revealed it was due to Holland’s Peter Parker interfering with the multiverse. Venom 2’s multiverse connection to the MCU Spider-Man ended with the anti-hero being sent back to his universe, while a small portion of Venom remained in the MCU, set up to connect with Holland’s Spider-Man. Holland’s reduced role is positive for the Venom franchise’s future, as it builds anticipation for when his Spider-Man and Hardy’s Venom face off.

When Could Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Fight Tom Hardy’s Venom?

Spider-Man: No Way Home set up Holland’s Peter Parker to come into contact with Venom, donning the black suit in a future movie. Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s post-credits scene introduced the concept of the symbiotes all sharing a hive knowledge, meaning that whenever the MCU Spider-Man comes into contact with the piece of Venom that stayed behind, Hardy’s symbiote will be alerted. Venom 3 might make the Spider-Man fight happen, with Hardy recently hyping up progress on the film, which is officially going through pre-production. After the characters missed each other in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Venom: Let There Be Carnage’s tease could be paid off in the sequel.

While Venom is commonly known as a Spider-Man villain in the comics, the Hardy-led movie franchise takes cues from the 1993 Venom: Lethal Protector comic book miniseries by David Michelinie, Mark Bagley, Ron Lim, and Sam de la Rosa, which envisioned the character as an anti-hero. Because of that, it is possible that Venom and Spider-Man fight when they next meet — due to Brock thinking Spider-Man is a “menace” because of the Daily Bugle. However, Venom 3’s challenge after Spider-Man: No Way Home would be to maintain the characters’ connection fresh. Perhaps Hardy’s Venom aiding Holland’s Spider-Man — after an introductory fight — in the multiverse event Avengers: Secret Wars might make more sense, paying off the Venom: Let There Be Carnage tease.
