Sony on Tuesday said its third movie in the Venom franchise now has a name and a new release date: It’s called Venom: The Last Dance, and it’s now opening October 25 this year, not November 8.
The threequel will screen in Imax and on PLFs.
Kelly Marcel directs Tom Hardy, who plays the black widow creature for a third time. Marcel also wrote the screenplay with a story she co-penned with Hardy. Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, Hutch Parker, Marcel and Hardy are producing.
Juno Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor also star.
Venom 3 moves away from 20th Century Studios’ The Amateur and lands on the same theatrical release date as Universal/Blumhouse’s The Wolfman and Cinedigm’s Terrifier 3.
All in, the previous two Venom movies have grossed $1.36 billion at the global box office.
