After Tom Hardy’s Venom 3 was labeled the “final chapter” and not the end, it opened a lot of possibilities for Spider-Man to enter the scene. For years, the superhero and the anti-hero have always been paired in comics, but a solo Venom film successfully made it big. Now, it’s probably time for the much-awaited showdown.
Lots of theories about Venom and Spider-Man’s duel have circulated on social media, with an industry insider claiming it will happen “sooner” than we think. Given that Tom Holland is still unsure whether he will sign up with Marvel Studios again, that leaves fans with Andrew Garfield to cheer on.
Fans Demand Andrew Garfield As Spider-Man In Venom 3
The post-credits scene in Spider-Man: No Way Home indeed suggested a possibility of Spider-Man and Venom meeting, though a spell brought Eddie Brock back to his home dimension. This could mean he is bound to meet another version of Spider-Man other than Tom Holland’s.
Tom Hardy previously spoke with Digital Spy and revealed that Venom 3’s story was planned all along. He said:
“But I think it’s really important, if you go into something, thinking that one, two, and three are the same… the same story, the same film. So that you don’t surprise yourself by being caught out by suddenly having to do a third from nowhere.”
The most asked question about the third film’s plot is whether Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man would appear. Fans seem to love the idea of having the Hacksaw Ridge star return for Venom 3. Check out their tweets below:

Andrew Garfield Spider-Man deserves his second chance

Truthfully, Venom needs Spiderman. And since they already established a multiverse version of it, they could always put Eddie and Venom into the wrong universe and be stuck in the Andrew Garfield universe.

At this point, only three actors are confirmed to join the movie. Aside from Hardy, Juno Temple and Chiwetel Ejiofor will also join in the fun.
What To Expect In Venom 3?
Kelly Marcel, who penned the first two Venom movies, will be making her directorial debut in Venom 3. As someone who possesses in-depth knowledge about the character, fans will be assured that the movie is in good hands.
Since the third installment is described as the final chapter, it will definitely provide closure to the trilogy. While there are scarce details about the exact plot, the events in Spider-Man: No Way Home, especially the post-credits, could serve as a hint.
Still, fans are waiting for the most anticipated fight between Spider-Man and Venom. Garfield’s possible appearance in the movie will definitely drive fans insane.
