The end is near for Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock in the first trailer for Venom: The Last Dance, the final film in the Venom trilogy.

“We may not make it out alive, buddy,” Eddie tells Venom in the trailer. Eddie and Venom are fugitives on the run from government agents. While they attempt to evade capture, another symbiote villain from Venom’s home planet invades Earth, threatening the safety of Eddie and the rest of humanity. Per the film’s logline, “the duo are forced into a devastating decision that will bring the curtains down on Venom and Eddie’s last dance.”

More Knull? Venom: The Last Dance director says villain will not be a ‘one and done’
Knull walks and stares in Marvel Comics.

Knull is just getting started.

The final trailer for Venom: The Last Dance featured the surprising reveal of Knull, one of Marvel's most notable villains. Knull is the creator of the symbiote and sent other symbiotes to Earth to attack Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock and Venom. Despite Knull's appearance, director Kelly Marcel recently told IGN that the powerful villain is not the main antagonist of The Last Dance.
"The King in Black is way too powerful for 'one and done.' This film introduces Knull, but it just touches the beginnings of his story," Marcel said. "Marvel's greatest film villains are developed over time. Here, Knull is the threat lurking behind the danger that tests the absolute limits of Eddie and Venom's partnership — but it’s their relationship that remains the heart of this story."
Hardy has confirmed that The Last Dance marks his final film as Eddie/Venom. If this is the end for Hardy's Eddie, why introduce such an important character like Knull in the last film of a trilogy? According to Marcel, The Last Dance is only the beginning, not the end, for Knull.
"As the fans know, there are many, many more symbiote stories — the universe is wide and rich, and one movie could never do justice to Knull," Marcel explained. "Beyond this trilogy, there are more stories to explore – God is coming."
