He instantly published a presumably ghost-written memoir about his fabricated friendship with New York’s resident webslinger. In No Way Home, Flash suddenly started pretending to be Peter’s BFF when he was revealed to be Spider-Man. The MCU’s Spider-Man movies have made a great running gag out of the ironic comic book tradition that Flash simultaneously ridicules Peter and idolizes Spidey without realizing they’re the same person. He’s a neglected rich kid who uses his social status to belittle Peter as opposed to his physical brawn. In the comics, Flash is a typical brash jock, but Revolori’s Flash is a much more subversive, less clichéd version of the character. Revolori has been hilarious in the role of Flash since his introduction in Spider-Man: Homecoming. This would be a fun development for Tony Revolori’s attention-seeking, superhero-obsessed Flash – especially after forgetting that Peter Parker exists at the end of No Way Home. Instead, the best MCU character to host the Venom symbiote is Flash Thompson, who hosted the Venom symbiote and became “Agent Venom” in the comics. Introducing a new version of Eddie’s Venom alongside Holland’s Spidey would feel redundant, especially since fans are desperate to see Hardy’s symbiote-infused antihero bicker with the MCU’s friendly neighborhood webslinger himself. Unless Hardy is going to be brought back into the MCU yet again, Kevin Feige will probably avoid Eddie Brock.

Plus, Marvel Studios has to make all its Spider-Man movies in conjunction with Sony and Hardy’s Venom is the centerpiece of Sony’s own Marvel-based movie franchise. Hardy’s take on Eddie is wildly popular among moviegoers and, like Wesley Snipes’ Blade, has redefined who the character is. It seems unlikely that the MCU will introduce its own version of Eddie. RELATED: Tom Hardy Shot Venom 2 Post-Credits Scene On Spider-Man: No Way Home Set When Doctor Strange sent all the non-MCU Marvel characters back to their original franchises, Hardy’s Eddie unwittingly left behind some Venom symbiote, possibly setting up a separate incarnation of Venom for the MCU. Still, it wasn’t a complete waste of time. It was an odd choice to bring Hardy’s Venom into the MCU in one credits scene, only to kick him back out of it in another credits scene a couple of months later. But then, in No Way Home’s mid-credits scene, he was sent right back into Sony’s Marvel movie-verse. It saw Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock transported into a new parallel universe containing Tom Holland’s Peter Parker, setting up the multiversal madness of Spider-Man: No Way Home and seemingly bringing Hardy’s Venom into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That is 100% thanks to our man Eddie, who he relates to because they are both “losers” in their respective worlds, and also because he’s in love with him.The mid-credits scene in Venom: Let There Be Carnage sparked more excitement and fan discussion than anything from the actual movie. Venom ribs on Eddie for doing everything from putting his hands in the air when faced with a taser to taking the elevator rather than jumping out a window, but after spending about a day in his head is suddenly so enamored of Earth that he betrays his team and the other symbiotes because he wants to save the world, not destroy it. Venom plays out like a buddy comedy/rom-com for the most part ( heads up, spoilers do follow).

For a full update on the strange Venom family drama, I’d recommend reading this summary.

This isn’t the first time Venom has spawned a new symbiote, but this is the first time that baby Venom is a force of good, partially because Eddie is the baby’s de-facto father.


In recent comics, Eddie even refers to Venom as “love” which is pretty telling, and the pair have a strange symbiote baby together. Google tells me that Venom/Eddie was not born with this movie, though it sure just hit the mainstream.
