‘Venom 3’ Is Heading Back to Theaters With a Title and Fall Release Date

Maybe you’re a Spider-Man fan or just prefer the anti-hero Venom, which is not quite in the same theatrical universe yet.

We’re on the fence over here, but one thing is for sure about the third Venom film – it will be called Venom: The Last Dance. Variety reported the new title, and Sony announced it would open in theaters everywhere on Oct. 25 this year instead of Nov. 8, as earlier reported. Expect the third installment to hit both Imax and PLFs.

Kelly Marcel is directing, and Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises) is again playing the wild but comical black widow creature. Marcel penned the script with a story she also co-wrote with Hardy. Producers include heavyweights Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, Hutch Parker, Marcel, and Hardy. June Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor also star alongside Hardy.

The previous Venom films grossed $1.36 billion at the global box office, which is a big deal.

Although Little Simz original version of “Venom,” released on her standout 2019 album Grey Area, initially had nothing to do with the Marvel anti-hero of the same name, it would have been a waste of synergistic potential for the good folks at Sony to not try to employ it in the new sequel film, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. Fortunately, Simz was up for the revival, picking up the pen to revamp the lyrics for a more motivational mood fitting to the comic-book-inspired antics onscreen.

You can thank Venom: Let There Be Carnage (boy, that’s a mouthful — which… considering the character in question… fits?) star Tom Hardy for Simz’s inclusion in the process. Last week, the film’s director Andy Serkis told Uproxx that Simz’s fellow Brit and well-known hip-hop head Hardy suggested the song be used in a sequence in the film and reached out to Simz to make it happen. “She actually had made a song, unbeknownst to her, called ‘Venom’ that connected very much with the first movie,” Serkis said, “And so Tom got in touch with her and that song became sort of the focus [of the scene].”

The moment is perfectly positioned to capitalize on Simz’s recently released album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert and her upcoming North American tour, putting her music in what will undoubtedly be one of the more popular movies of the year just in time to bring in a plethora of new fans. She deserves them.
