A fan-made concept trailer titled “Venom 4: The Abyss Reborn” has gone viral across platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook, reigniting speculation about the future of Sony’s symbiote franchise following the 2024 release of “Venom: The Last Dance.” Featuring Tom Hardy reprising his role as Eddie Brock and Juno Temple returning in an expanded capacity, the unofficial footage envisions a dark continuation where the Venom symbiote survives its apparent demise and seeks reunion with its host in a radically altered form.
The trailer, uploaded in late December 2025 and amassing tens of thousands of views, presents a plot concept centered on resurrection. In “Venom: The Last Dance,” Eddie Brock and Venom part ways in a sacrificial act to defeat an alien threat, with Venom seemingly perishing. The concept trailer flips this outcome: the symbiote endures by bonding with a cockroach host, allowing it to traverse the country in insect form before attempting to rejoin Eddie in New York City. Visuals include grotesque transformations, shadowy pursuits, and tense reunions, blending horror elements with the series’ signature buddy dynamic.
Juno Temple’s Dr. Teddy Paine, introduced in “The Last Dance” as a scientist studying symbiotes at Area 51, appears prominently. The footage suggests her character bonds with Agony, one of the Life Foundation symbiotes from earlier comics lore, positioning her as a potential antagonist or complex ally. Temple, who expressed enthusiasm for continuing in the Marvel/Sony universe in post-release interviews, brings added intrigue to the concept. Her performance in the third film earned praise for grounding the sci-fi elements in scientific curiosity and moral ambiguity.
No official “Venom 4” has been announced by Sony Pictures. “Venom: The Last Dance,” directed by Kelly Marcel and released in October 2024, was marketed as Tom Hardy’s final outing as Eddie Brock/Venom, concluding the trilogy that began with 2018’s “Venom” and continued with 2021’s “Venom: Let There Be Carnage.” The film grossed over $470 million worldwide despite mixed reviews, and its post-credits scenes teased broader symbiote mythology, including Knull, the god-like creator of symbiotes from Marvel Comics’ “King in Black” storyline.
Fan concepts like “The Abyss Reborn” have proliferated since the trilogy’s end, with titles varying from “King in Black” to “Knull Awaken.” Many incorporate Knull as the central villain, often imagining crossovers with Spider-Man (Tom Holland) or multiverse elements. The “Abyss Reborn” version stands out for its focus on survival and rebirth rather than immediate cosmic threats, emphasizing Eddie’s emotional journey from grief to renewed partnership—or conflict—with Venom.
The trailer’s production quality, while not studio-level, features edited clips from previous films, new VFX for insect-hosted symbiote sequences, and dramatic voiceovers. Lines like “You looked into the dark and turned away” underscore themes of facing inner demons and the inescapable bond between host and symbiote. It draws heavily from comic lore where symbiotes demonstrate resilience, adapting to extreme conditions and even microscopic hosts.
Sony has not commented on sequel plans. Industry reports indicate the studio is exploring expansion of its Spider-Man Universe (SSU) with projects like “Kraven the Hunter” and “Madame Web,” but no concrete “Venom 4” developments have surfaced. Tom Hardy has remained coy about returning, stating in interviews that the third film provided closure while leaving the door cracked for future stories. Juno Temple, in a People magazine exclusive, described her Marvel experience as “major” and expressed openness to reprising her role.
The viral spread of concept trailers reflects enduring fan interest in the Venom character. The franchise has grossed over $1.3 billion across three films, proving the appeal of anti-hero symbiote tales outside the MCU proper. Discussions on Reddit, YouTube, and social media often cite post-credits teases—such as symbiote remnants in the MCU and hints at Knull—as evidence for continuation, even if recast or in different formats.
Critics note that while “The Last Dance” wrapped Eddie’s arc, the symbiote mythos offers endless possibilities. Comics have seen Venom hosts like Flash Thompson (Agent Venom) and others, providing pathways for new stories. Some speculate Sony could pivot to a different lead while keeping Hardy in a cameo capacity, or explore animated or series formats.
The “Abyss Reborn” concept taps into horror roots, showing Venom’s journey as grotesque and relentless. Scenes of the insect-hosted symbiote navigating urban environments and rural landscapes build tension toward a reunion that could be joyous or destructive. Temple’s Agony-bonded Paine adds scientific and personal stakes, potentially exploring symbiote experimentation gone wrong.
As 2026 approaches, fans continue dissecting every leak and rumor. While official announcements remain absent, the enthusiasm for “Venom 4” concepts demonstrates the character’s lasting draw. Whether Sony greenlights a direct sequel, reboots the symbiote saga, or integrates it into larger crossovers, the appetite for more Venom remains strong.
For now, viewers can revisit the trilogy on streaming platforms. The “Abyss Reborn” trailer serves as fan fiction made visual—compelling, dark, and a reminder that in the world of symbiotes, death is rarely final
