Will Spider-Man Make An Appearance In VENOM? Kevin Feige Sets The Record Straight

A Venom movie is in the works with Tom Hardy set to play Eddie Brock but will Tom Holland's Peter Parker/Spider-Man at least make some sort of cameo appearance? We finally have an answer about just that!

We've all been left with a lot of questions about Spider-Man's future thanks to Sony's decision to forge ahead with spinoffs revolving around characters like Venom, Silver Sable, and Black Cat, with the biggest being how Marvel's wall-crawler will factor into those spinoffs and whether he even exists in that world. It's been said that they're separate but how can Venom be Venom without Peter Parker?

Who knows at this point but during an interview at the world premiere of Spider-Man: Homecoming, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige confirmed that their Spider-Man will NOT appear in Venom.

"No," he confirmed when asked about Tom Holland's Spider-Man showing up there. "No, I think they’re focusing on making a great Venom movie, and I don’t know much about it, but I know they’re off to a good start with Tom Hardy." We've heard that last bit before but the fact that Spider-Man won't even make a cameo appearance is concerning in regards to how the spinoff will work.

Are we getting an Eddie Brock who has never crossed paths with Peter Parker and has a totally different origin story or one who has but only done so off screen with a few vague references to that? We're obviously going to have to wait and see but share your thoughts in the comments section below.

I just want Venom in Spiderman's films.

CopperCrow - 6/29/2017, 8:01 AM

@CopperCrow - oh... big moment for me. This is my first "first"...

BloodyBed - 6/29/2017, 8:50 AM

@CopperCrow - it's all downhill from here. soon, it wont even be enjoyable for you anymore. you just go through the motions. You think, "this is supposed to be a great feeling right?" but it's not anymore. it's just a basic human need that you fill. Pretty soon, you won't even remember their names, or care about their feelings, you just do it and move on, waiting for the next time to get dirty, but not really anticipating it.. wait what are we talk about.

@ALostCause - lol sounds like you're trying to score some heroin

Venom is overrated AF. He isn't even a character, he's a suit. Captain Universe would be just as good, why haven't they done a movie about that?

Ryguy88 - 6/29/2017, 11:37 AM

@TheFamousJMC - Venom is an alien that bonds with people and begins altering there thought processes. They could make a really good sci-fi/horror if its well written.

SpideyQuad - 6/29/2017, 12:12 PM

@CopperCrow - Andrew Garfield is still under contract… I'm just saying

SpideyQuad - 6/29/2017, 12:14 PM

@TheFamousJMC - Because Capt. Universe doesn't make adolescence wanna whack off while thinking about their neighbor next door.

SpideyQuad - 6/29/2017, 12:17 PM

@TheFamousJMC - Venom has always been a synonym for a teenage wet dream.

AwesomePromoz - 6/29/2017, 1:17 PM

@SpideyQuad - LOL

AwesomePromoz - 6/29/2017, 1:18 PM

@Ryguy88 - I would dig the sci-fi horror, but it would still be derivative. Venom is basically the Blob crossed with Ridley Scott's Alien.

Nightwing1015 - 6/29/2017, 8:00 AM

Spider-Man would obviously make the movie better even if he was only in there for a short time.

JonC - 6/29/2017, 9:03 AM

@Nightwing1015 - "Tom Holland's Spider-Man" not appearing doesn't mean another Spiderman can't and that may or may not be unmasked to reveal another actor. Spidey could be suited up the whole movie and not be Holland.

DillonEnnis - 6/29/2017, 8:02 AM

I think the terms of their deal are muddy and Sony still wants Spider-Man in their movies and would like that Spider-Man to be a known quantity in Tom Holland so there's a lot of waffling in the press.

TheScatman - 6/30/2017, 12:32 AM

@EnnisFan - agreed. It almost seems like Fiege is telling them "make a good movie on your own, then we will see about the future."

Tonic24k - 6/29/2017, 8:03 AM

Sony is just silly for doing this. "Okay we'll share Spidey but then we're gonna turn around and do other Spidey characters of our own."

Yo, just give the goddamn fans what we want.
