A new rumor regarding Venom‘s role in the MCU and what it could mean for future movies, including Avengers projects, hints at how the iconic symbiote could factor into Marvel Studios‘ grand scheme.
What is the new Venom MCU rumor?
During a recent Q&A session on The Cosmic Circus, insider Alex Perez was asked about Venom. As fans might remember, a small piece of the Venom symbiote was left in the mainline universe of the MCU by Tom Hardy and Venom in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home.
According to Perez, the symbiote “does belong to another universe,” and by existing in a different universe for so long, it will begin to “cause friction” against the boundaries of the universe.
Perez was also asked about the symbiote bonding with the likes of Spider-Man and Scorpion, the latter of which has also been heavily rumored. Perez said that he doesn’t believe any other heroes or villains will interact with the symbiote besides those two, and jokingly invoked the “fifth amendment privilege” when asked if the symbiote will “have any importance” on Brand New Day.
Elsewhere in the Q&A, Perez was asked about potential villains that Marvel Studios might have an eye out for in Tom Holland’s rumored second trilogy of Spider-Man films. Perez said that villains like Wilson Fisk, Venom, Tombstone, Hammerhead, and Prowler have all been names tossed around.
So far, only Spider-Man: Brand New Day has been revealed
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is being directed by Destin Daniel Cretton from a screenplay written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. The movie will once again be led by Tom Holland as he reprises his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. Emmy winner Zendaya and Jacob Batalo are also expected to return for the sequel.
They will be joined by recently announced cast members Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) and Liza Colón-Zayas (The Bear), with Jon Bernthal set to make his movie debut as Frank Castle/Punisher. The latter recently played the anti-hero again in Daredevil: Born Again Season 1. The movie is produced by Kevin Feige, Amy Pascal, Rachel O’Connor, and Avi Arad.
Spider-Man 4 will be released in United States theaters on July 31, 2026 ahead of Avengers: Doomsday (December 18, 2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (December 17, 2027), following Doomsday’s delay.
