Venom, produced by Sony starring our very own Peaky Blinder star Tom Hardy was a great hit on the box office in 2018. Good news for the fans, Venom 2: Let There be Carnage is also confirmed. Now with the Sony and Marvel studios merging together, there are also many questions that we have. Is this movie a part of MCU? If yes, than would we see Venom against Tom Holland’s Spiderman? And when will this movie is going to release? The following article contains every bit of information that you need to know about this upcoming marvelous film.

Who is Venom?

Venom, often portrayed as a villain by some and hero by others, is a conflicted character from marvel super-hero comics. Venom is a villain in spider man comics but the recent movies portrays him as the hero and a good guy. First appearance of Venom on the screen was in the last film of Toby Maguire’s Spiderman’s trilogy. In Spiderman 3, the alien symbiotic we know as venom attaches itself with Peter Parker and later to its comically accurate host, Eddie Brock (Topher Grace). Although this film was not a very good one, but it marks the first time we saw this black alien life form in flesh on the big screen.

Venom 2018

In 2018, Sony studios still had exclusive rights to the character of Venom. Although they didn’t had Spiderman or any other Spiderman villain or hero from that universe, they still decided to go on with what they had. They cast the best actors they could find to fulfill the roles to make this film stand against the Marvel giants and they did one hell of fine job with it. Tom Hardy rocked the role of Venom with his own unique style and appearance. Sony studios had produced a film that could truly retaliate against marvel studios and forms its own unique cult among the fans. The Films was a huge success and fans wanted more of Tom Hardy playing the merciless and ruthless alien symbiotic.

Venom 2 Confirmed?

Directed by Andy Serkis and written by Kelly Marcel, Venom 2 is confirmed to be released soon. With the original cast of Tom Hardy returning, this film is said to be preceded by Morbius. But due to everything that is going happening in the worlds right now, both of these movies are being delayed. But as many others movies are taking up the digital release initiative, maybe the Sony studios might do the same thing. Morbius is releasing in November 2020, so we can say that Venom 2 will be shortly afterwards.

Release Date

According to Sony studios, Venom 2 will be releasing on October 2nd 2020. But this date will be changing due to the current Covid-19 situation. Just like Jared Leto’s Morbius is also delaying from July 31st to March 19th. The same might happen with this movie as well. With the current conditions , the film will either release digitally. If not than the release date may be pushed forward to somewhere in early 2021. The shooting started in November 2019 and ended in April 2020, so now we know that the film is ready to be released or at-least in its final editing stages, the trailer will be releasing any time. The trailer was going to release in April but there is no news of it yet. If everything goes right, we might be getting it in a week or two maybe.

Is it a part of MCU?

No. Venom 2 is not a part of MCU yet. There is no official news of confirming this or denying it. The studios are keeping this a secret and letting us all burn in this fire of suspense. There were some rumors that Sony and Marvel might be working together but no official news has reached us yet.

Some un-official news is breaking out though. This news was deleted shortly afterwards, but in today’s world, you cannot really delete anything from the social media, can you? Luckily we have it in our archives and are more than happy to share it everyone else.

Yes it is a story posted by Tom Hardy where we can clearly see Venom chewing Spiderman. So is it really the end of Peter Parker? Only time will tell. Just like Marvel got spider-man back from the Sony studios maybe they are also making deals to get Venom and Morbius too for the MCU. If that if true then we are in for a hell of a ride! With Morbius being the Batman of MCU and Venom being the Spiderman’s arch nemesis (or not) we are sure to be thrilled and amazed by the bright future of super heroes movies that are up ahead.

Maybe not!

Maybe all that sweet talk earlier may not be true after all. Everything is not made to be connected. Some things just don’t go like we want them to go and are just out of our control. Maybe that story is what Tom Hardy sees his Venom as and nothing more. No hints or teases and just little joke and his own point of view about his character. The fans are still arguing that they would like it far more if it were Andrew Garfield’ Spiderman but we all know that this may not happen ever.

Only time will tell what the future holds and how the big studios plan their next moves. But if these rumors are true, then Venom, Carnage, Morbius, Vulture, Scorpion and Mysterio (Considering he faked his death in ffh), Spidey’s worst nightmares are coming in play soon. This will be truly awesome and worthy to watch before the world ends.
