The first trailer of Venom: The Last Dance debuted on June 3. The film is slated to be the final entry in the Venom series, which is a part of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. The brief appearances of Tom Hardy‘s Venom in both Sony’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage and the MCU’s Spider-Man: No Way Home hinted at a potential crossover between the two cinematic universes. However, the recent trailer for the next Venom movie suggests otherwise. This has sparked speculation among fans, raising questions about whether Sony views the connection established in No Way Home as a misstep and intends to keep the universes separate.

Here’s what we have discovered on the prospects of Venom: The Last Dance retconning Spider-Man: No Way Home’s post-credits scene.

Will Venom: The Last Dance retcon Spider-Man: No Way Home’s post-credits scene?

It appears that Venom: The Last Dance will retcon the post-credits scene from Spider-Man: No Way Home, based on the first trailer.

However, when we take a closer look at everything the trailer claims to reveal, things start to get confusing. Eddie ends up in the MCU in Let There Be Carnage because of a spell cast by Doctor Strange. In No Way Home, he is in a bar in Mexico until he returns to his native universe due to another spell by Doctor Strange. But before he does so, he mistakenly drops a small piece of the Venom Symbiote in the MCU. This led the fans to speculate that Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man would form a symbiotic relationship with this piece.

However, as the trailer indicates, at the same facility, a military guy successfully encapsulates the Symbiote in a jar. It eliminates the possibility that it will ever form a link with Peter. In addition, this military man is supposed to exist in the SSU universe and not MCU, where the Mexican bar scene takes place. Ejiofor portrays Karl Mordo in the MCU, complicating the matter further.

In short, Venom 3 seems to be Sony’s attempt to rewrite the conclusion of Spider-Man: No Way Home, even if the studio might have different ideas for the franchise’s future. Alternatively, the sequence in which Ejiofor’s military guy captures the Symbiote might not make it into the final cut, leaving No Way Home’s denouement exactly as it is.
