The trailer shows off a new symbiote
The new symbiote is believed to be Lasher, one of five spawned from Venom by the Life Foundation, with its original host being mercenary Ramon Hernandez. Unlike Venom, Lasher uses tendrils like whips. As Eddie and Venom are hunted by both their worlds, they face a devastating choice that will mark the end of their journey together, setting the stage for their final showdown in The Last Dance.
Meet the crew of 'Last Dance'
Kelly Marcel, who co-wrote the previous Venom film, takes the helm as director for the third installment, working from a screenplay she co-wrote with the lead, Hardy. The duo developed the story together, with Hardy not only starring but also serving as a producer. Marcel joins producers Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, and Hutch Parker to bring this final chapter of Venom to life.
