When Venom: The Last Dance hits theaters, it’ll wrap up a trilogy of films that boldly ventured into the Spider-Man universe but without Spider-Man. Sony’s strategy has opened the door to some wild, offbeat stories, from Dakota Johnson’s Madame Web (featuring a newborn Peter Parker, no less) to Morbius, doing its own thing. But Tom Hardy’s portrayal of the chaotic antihero, Venom, has truly defined this franchise. As Hardy revealed, the biggest shock for fans might be the film’s unexpected technical twist: bringing Venom into the daylight.
It might sound simple, but as Hardy shared with CinemaBlend, getting the symbiote into the sunlight posed a significant challenge. “One of the challenges in this movie was that we wanted to see Venom during the daylight,” Hardy explained. “It’s a huge exposure point for Venom. At nighttime, you can technically hide many sins because he’s dark. The night is dark. You can probably get more bang for your buck.”
Before Hardy spilled the beans, it’s easy to forget how much of Venom (and Venom: Let There Be Carnage) played out under the cover of darkness. After all, Venom’s jet-black symbiote form thrives in the shadows. However, Hardy and director Kelly Marcel had more significant ideas as the trilogy progressed. The daylight shift? It is a bold move that sets Venom: The Last Dance apart from its predecessors.

When you look at the trailers for the final chapter, it’s clear Hardy and Marcel succeeded. Major scenes unfold in the bright sun of the desert or under the neon lights of Las Vegas, where Eddie and his symbiote partner take a detour. The contrast is jarring—Venom in daylight feels fresh, like a brand-new chapter for the character. But it’s not just about bright visuals; it’s a technical feat. Sony’s visual effects have come a long way, giving the symbiote more life, even under harsh daylight. This bold new approach sets the stage for even bigger symbiote stories in upcoming Spider-Man films.
The daylight exposure isn’t the only evolution we’ll see. The Venom films have always leaned into physical comedy, with Hardy’s unique sensibilities shaping the quirky tone. But this movie promises to raise the stakes and offer more of the unexpected. As Venom: The Last Dance hits theaters, fans can expect a wild ride that showcases the improvements in visual effects and storytelling while sticking true to the oddball charm that made us fall in love with Venom in the first place.
With the symbiote now comfortably in the light, it’s clear that Sony isn’t just testing the waters—they’re setting the stage for more symbiote action in the Spider-Man universe. And Hardy’s willingness to take risks with the character is just one more reason to stay excited for what’s next.
