Venom: The Last Dance might be exactly that for this version of the character —but, surely, Venom will live on. The film’s ending and end-credits scenes hint at where things might go in the future and, with the film now in theaters , it’s time to talk all about it. Major spoilers are below.
In the film’s big finale, Venom detaches himself from Eddie and dies, along with all the evil xenophages sent by Knull to secure the codex the pair are holding. With one of them (in this case Venom) dying, the codex once again goes away and keeps Knull in his unbreakable symbiote prison. 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 still has a symbiote in her. The movie kind of explains the reason Venom and Eddie hold the codex is because Venom used his powers to bring Eddie back to life, which was the key to unlocking this special codex.
So, w ith a human and symbiote still together, there’s the potential of a resurrection, and thereby a codex still exists. That gives hope to Knull, leading into that first end-credit scene. The first end-credit scene shows Knull still in prison, promising to get out and that the “world will burn.
” He then looks up, revealing his scary and menacing face. Basically, the scene says even though Venom: The Last Dance introduced this supervillain without really using him, he’s still on the table and maybe we’ll see him again in t.
