A new The Amazing Spider-Man 3 fan trailer sees Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker suited up with his own symbiote suit against Tom Hardy’s Venom.

Tom Hardy’s Venom crosses over with Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker as the Marvel icons battle it out in a new The Amazing Spider-Man 3 fan trailer. Venom: The Last Dance is confirmed to arrive in theaters this fall, marking a big milestone for Sony’s Spider-Man Universe timeline, as Eddie Brock becomes the first character to complete his own trilogy. However, the anti-hero has yet to take on Spider-Man, as the web-crawler is still missing in action in the franchise.

While The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was canceled nearly a decade ago, some Marvel fans are still hoping to see it happen. In a new The Amazing Spider-Man 3 fan trailer by KH Studio, Garfield’s web-slinger gets his own symbiote storyline as he dons the iconic black suit while taking on Hardy’s Venom.

The Amazing Spider-Man 3 fan trailer pitches the idea of Garfield’s Peter and Hardy’s Venom finally coming together, most likely through multiverse travel. KH Studio’s fan trailer consists of footage from The Amazing Spider-Man, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man 3, along with Hardy’s Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

Could Andrew Garfield’s Marvel Hero Save Sony’s Spider-Man Universe?

While time will tell if Sony Pictures revisits the idea of making The Amazing Spider-Man 3, there is another major reason to bring Garfield’s hero back via the Sony’s Spider-Man Universe. Even though Venom: The Last Dance is coming, Sony’s Spider-Man Universe took a hit this year with Madame Web, which became a critical and box office bomb for Sony Pictures. Whether or not that will affect Kraven the Hunter remains to be seen, but it’s evident that Sony’s Spider-Man Universe doesn’t have a clear direction to audiences, and the web-crawler’s absence is a major factor in this perception.

Given how there have been theories for a few years that Garfield’s version of the Marvel legend is in the same world as Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, he is perfectly placed to give foundations to the franchise. This would also justify calling the franchise the “Sony Spider-Man Universe”, as audiences have repeatedly questioned this title give the lack of any sign of the hero in its releases thusfar.

If Sony Pictures is locked into keeping Spider-Man out of the universe altogether, there is a real chance the franchise may end after Venom: The Last Dance, which would be a natural conclusion point at this time. However, adding in the universe’s titular hero would easily serve to extend its story, and ground the villains introduced in it by giving them a nemesis. Whether it is through The Amazing Spider-Man 3 or a different Marvel project, it will hopefully not be long until the world sees Garfield’s version of the Marvel hero back on the big-screen.
