Venom 3 is an upcoming American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Venom, produced by Columbia Pictures in association with Marvel Entertainment. Distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing, it is intended to be the sixth film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe and the sequel to Venom (2018) and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021). The film is being written, co-produced, and directed by Kelly Marcel from a story she wrote with Tom Hardy, who reprises his roles as Eddie Brock and Venom and also serves as a producer.

Hardy revealed in August 2018 that he was signed on to appear in a third Venom film, and development had begun by December 2021, after the second film was released. Marcel and Hardy were writing the script by June 2022, and Marcel was set to direct that October, making the film her feature film directorial debut. Filming began in late June 2023 in Spain but was halted the next month due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. Filming resumed in November following the strike's conclusion and is also expected to occur in London.

Venom 3 is scheduled to be released in the United States on November 8, 2024.

Cast

Additionally, Juno Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor have been cast in undisclosed roles,[2] with Temple's role described as a lead character.[3]

Production

Development

Star Tom Hardy stated in August 2018 that he had signed on to star in three Venom films.[1] In September 2021, Hardy noted that the producers would have to continue to develop Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU) in future films but said they were also interested in crossing over with the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) more.[4] Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) director Andy Serkis expressed interest in returning to direct another Venom film,[5] and felt there was more to explore with Venom in future films before the character could meet Spider-Man in a future crossover film,[6] including further exploration of the Ravencroft Institute and other potential villains being held there.[5] In October, Tom Holland said he and producer Amy Pascal had discussed him potentially reprising his MCU role as Peter Parker / Spider-Man in future Venom sequels, after he made a cameo appearance in Let There Be Carnage via footage from the MCU film Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021).[7] That December, Pascal said they were in the "planning stages" of Venom 3.[8]

Sony Pictures confirmed the film was in development at CinemaCon in April 2022.[9] In June, Hardy revealed that Kelly Marcel was writing the screenplay after previously working on the prior Venom films and that he was co-writing the story with her.[10] Hardy was set to be paid $20 million for his involvement.[11] That October, Marcel was set to make her directorial debut with the film and to produce alongside Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Pascal, Hutch Parker, and Hardy,[12] with Arad Productions, Matt Tolmach Productions, Pascal Pictures, Hutch Parker Entertainment, and Columbia Pictures as the production companies.[13] The film was expected to conclude the Venom trilogy.[12] Serkis said he was unable to return due to his commitments to Animal Farm, which he previously delayed to work on Let There Be Carnage.[14]

Pre-production

Hardy revealed in February 2023 that pre-production work had begun.[15] Juno Temple entered negotiations to join the cast in an undisclosed "lead role" in April.[3] The next month, filming was expected to begin in June in London,[16][17] and Chiwetel Ejiofor joined the cast along with Temple.[2] In June, the film was set for release in October 2024.[18]

Filming

Principal photography began on June 26, 2023, at Los Mateos in Cartagena, Spain, as well as at the Calblanque Regional Park.[19][20] Fabian Wagner serves as the cinematographer after previously serving as an additional cinematographer on Let There Be Carnage.[16] The start of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike in mid-July 2023 resulted in filming being halted.[21] Later that month, the film was set to release on July 12, 2024.[22] When the actors' strike ended in early November 2023, Sony delayed the film to release on November 8, 2024, filling the November 2024 date that the studio had previously reserved for an untitled Marvel film. Production was preparing to resume at that time.[23] Filming resumed on November 16.[24] Filming is also expected to take place in London.[16][17]

Release

Venom 3 is scheduled to be released in the United States on November 8, 2024.[23] It was previously expected for an October 2024 release, and scheduled on July 12, 2024.[18][22]

Sony signed deals with Netflix and Disney in April 2021 for the rights to their 2022 to 2026 film slate, following the films' theatrical and home media windows.[25][26] Netflix signed for exclusive "pay 1 window" streaming rights, which is typically an 18-month window and included future Venom films following Venom: Let There Be Carnage.[25] Disney signed for "pay 2 window" rights for the films, which would be streamed on Disney+ and Hulu as well as broadcast on Disney's linear television networks.[26][27]
