The “Venom-Horse” at the end of Venom: The Last Dance’s first trailer puts my favorite part about Marvel Comics’ symbiotes on the big screen. While the Venom symbiote began as a sentient alien suit for Spider-Man in the original Marvel Comics, it’s since expanded into an entire alien race that has seeped its way into every facet of the Marvel Universe at some point or other. To that end, I’m very excited by what I see in the first look at Venom: The Last Dance, especially given the confirmation that it will be the final film in the Sony Pictures franchise.
At the end of the first trailer for Venom 3, Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock asks the Venom symbiote how fast he could make a horse run before killing it. This results in one of the most ridiculously epic moments in the entire Venom franchise, with the symbiote bonding with a horse rather than a typical human host. This also ties nicely with the full capabilities of the Klyntar race from the comics, suggesting that all kinds of symbiote mayhem may be in store for the final Venom movie when it releases this October.
