Venom: The Final Dance may be precisely that for this model of the character—however, certainly, Venom will reside on. The movie’s ending and end-credits scenes trace at the place issues would possibly go sooner or later and, with the movie now in theaters, it’s time to speak all about it. Main spoilers are under.
Within the movie’s large finale, Venom detaches himself from Eddie and dies, together with all of the evil xenophages despatched by Knull to safe the codex the pair are holding. With one in all them (on this case Venom) dying, the codex as soon as once more goes away and retains Knull in his unbreakable symbiote jail. Eddie then goes to New York, as per their plan, and that’s that.
Or is it? We very clearly see that Juno Temple’s character Dr. Teddy Payne survives and she or he nonetheless has a symbiote in her. The film sort of explains the explanation Venom and Eddie maintain the codex is as a result of Venom used his powers to convey Eddie again to life, which was the important thing to unlocking this particular codex. So, with a human and symbiote nonetheless collectively, there’s the potential of a resurrection, and thereby a codex nonetheless exists. That offers hope to Knull, main into that first end-credit scene.
The primary end-credit scene exhibits Knull nonetheless in jail, promising to get out and that the “world will burn.” He then seems to be up, revealing his scary and menacing face. Mainly, the scene says despite the fact that Venom: The Final Dance launched this supervillain with out actually utilizing him, he’s nonetheless on the desk and possibly we’ll see him once more sooner or later.
That’s then adopted by the movie’s second end-credit scene, which exhibits Cristo Fernández’s bartender character escaping Space 55 after the battle. Earlier within the film, this universe’s model of the character was taken into custody however that story by no means wraps up. Right here it does, however not earlier than we additionally see a bit of symbiote doubtlessly going right into a cockroach. Is that how Venom will survive? Looks as if a chance.
Mainly, The Final Dance feels just like the final dance for Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock however within the infinite Marvel multiverse, there are nonetheless symbiotes, nonetheless people linked to symbiotes, and nonetheless an evil being that may management or destroy any of it.
Personally, I didn’t discover the above teases that compelling. The most effective a part of Venom: The Final Dance‘s ending is the “Recollections” by Maroon 5 montage displaying Eddie reminiscing about all the nice occasions with Venom. It’s a shocking, touching, and satisfying conclusion for this model of the character, one that’s unlikely to be topped transferring ahead, even with all of the free ends.
