Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock and his symbiote friend Venom are chased by a vicious alien creature from the latter’s planet while they discover secrets about the existence of symbiotes on earth in the trailer of Venom: The Last Dance, the final instalment of the Venom franchise.

Dropped by the makers on Thursday, the two-minute-58-second-long trailer kicks off with Brock and Venom gripping onto an aeroplane, and Brock quipping “How does Tom Cruise do this?” in his trademark sarcasm. The subsequent scenes reveal Venom informing Brock that his creator from their home planet has discovered their whereabouts on Earth and is pursuing them because they possess something he desperately needs.

While Brock is hunted down by medical researchers, Venom is chased by creatures from his planet. Soon, the narrative shifts to a laboratory where researchers observe Hardy trapped in a containment cell. They hypothesise that the symbiotes fled to Earth to escape a menacing force—likely their creator, the god of darkness, Knull.

The researchers conclude that earth is doomed if Brock and Venom continue to co-exist. “But I need him,” Brock insists, followed by a scene of Venom possessing a horse. The trailer then shifts gears, blending high-octane action sequences with a playful road trip vibe. In a poignant moment, Venom says, “I’m with you till the end,” a bittersweet reminder that the franchise is drawing to a close, six years after the release of the first film.

“Eddie and Venom are on the run. Hunted by both of their worlds and with the net closing in, the duo are forced into a devastating decision that will bring the curtains down on Venom and Eddie's last dance,” reads the synopsis of the upcoming film on IMDb.

Written and directed by Kelly Marcel, Venom: The Last Dance promises to dig deeper into the complex relationship between Brock and Venom.

Also starring Rhys Ifans, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach, Cristo Fernandez and Stephen Graham, Venom: The Last Dance will hit theatres on October 25.
