Tom Hardy and Andy Serkis Discuss The Venom-Verse and Its Eventual Collision with The Spider-Verse

Andy Serkis and Tom Hardy have been teasing the the eventual Venom and Spider-Man crossover for some time, and with Venom: Let There Be Carnage coming out soon, they continue to discuss it because that’s all most of the press are asking them about!

Serkis and Hardy are using the term “Venom-Verse” a lot lately and fans are waiting for the day with the Venom-Verse and the Spider-Verse end up colliding. Serkis has said in the past that it’s going to happen, and now in a recent interview with YouTuber Jake Hamilton, the filmmaker said:

"Obviously at some point, those worlds are gonna collide. Big time, they are, if we are so lucky as to get to make more Venom movies... But I do think there's more still to unpack in the Venom-Verse before we go there."

In a separate interview with ScreenRant, Hardy went on to discuss the future of Venom and its sequels and if they might explore the Marvel multiverse:

"Yeah, it's really hard because for me and the guys in the Venom-Verse, we came together under Sony and that's who we work for, that's who we run with, that's our team, you know? And obviously we just look at it as creatives and say, 'Look at all of these things we could play with.' But we really have to establish ourselves as somebody that maybe they want to play with. Maybe somebody that belongs in that world first. And do you like what we represent as Venom? Is this established? Once it's established, we then have to continue our Venom-Verse. But at the same time, we will always [be] looking to campaign to play with that with all the brothers and sisters who are out there, do you know what I mean? Whether we can connect the dots, that's up to the constellations, and that's above my pay grade, but we would be remiss not to think about that when we're working on the material."

It’s going to be really interesting to see what this Sony/Marvel universe looks like in the next five to ten tears. I wonder if it will be anything like the fans are imagining in their heads, or if it’s going to be something completely different and unique in a way that no one would have ever guessed. I guess we’ll eventually find out! But I seriously doubt we’ll see Tom Hardy’s Venom show up in Spider-Man: No Way Home like the recent rumors suggest.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage hits theaters on October 1, 2021.
