The fan-favorite anti-hero Venom is set to return in the franchise’s third sequel Venom 3 and fans have been waiting for the minutes to unravel. The latest teaser drop was Venom 3’s official logo which is now going viral on the internet. The film was initially untitled, but the logo has officially confirmed the anticipated title of the third sequel.
The seemingly crude logo presents the text in a flashy yet primitive font, raised to the power of three, to signify the third sequel element. After the picture landed on the fans’ feed, they took the comments to get creative with their reactions.
Venom 3 drops its first teaser
While an official trailer is still due, the Sony-led franchise has allowed fans a peek into the latest detail of the sequel, the logo. Venom 3 was originally scheduled for July 12, 2024, but is now seeing a premiere date of November 8, 2024, since filming presumed following the writers’ and actors’ strikes. After Sony wrapped up its The Amazing Spider-Man franchise, the Venom film series has kept Sony’s Spider-Man Universe relevant.
Therefore, there are high chances of Andrew Garfield returning in the third Venom installment, as a long-awaited face-off between Tom Hardy’s Venom and Spider-Man remains. Speaking of the logo, a post on X by Screen Time shared it with Venom fans. The design seemed sketched out and the positioning of the three greatly resembles David Fincher’s Alien 3 logo.

There is little known about Venom 3’s plot, but veteran writer and producer, Kelly Marcel is set to direct the sequel. According to Variety, Hardy assisted Marcel in developing the third installment’s plotline. Other producers include Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, Amy Pascal, and Hutch Parker.
Fans not convinced with Venom 3’s flashy logo
Even though Venom remains a fan-favorite character in the Spidey-verse, the recent logo teaser may have extinguished the great excitement around Venom 3. The logo became the focal point of curiosity and laughter with fans filling the comments with sarcasm and mockery. Here are some of the reactions:
Someone really got paid $10,000 to type Venom 3 in a different font and adding a color 😀

The odd part about this logo is that Spider-Man is literally confirmed! Blue lettering & red outline.

Venom 3 will be the last installment of the franchise, leaving Tom Hardy to fend for his future associations in the superhero world. 2018’s Venom became the seventh-highest-grossing film of that year, earning $856 million, and 2021’s Venom: Let There be Carnage grossed $501 million worldwide, despite the pandemic, per The Numbers. Given the successful history of Venom films, the third and final installment also holds a box-office-breaking potential. It is probably the last time fans will see the spotlight on Hardy’s Eddie Brock, but we never know.
Marvel’s attempt to correlate the two universes by teasing Hardy’s Venom around the end of 2021’s No Way Home, before Doctor Strange cast his spell to send everyone back to their original universes, drove expectations of a possible Venom feature in MCU’s future projects. Until then, Venom fans need to satiate their thirst for details with the flashy logo.
