WARNING: This article contains full spoilers for Venom: Let There Be Carnage and potential spoilers for Spider-Man: No Way Home.
The upcoming third solo Spider-Man film from Marvel will close out the Home trilogy. The character was only introduced into the MCU in 2016 in Captain America: Civil War, where he was enlisted by Iron Man. Since then, he has helped save the universe from Thanos and battled his own enemies in Homecoming and Far From Home. Beyond that, Tom Holland’s Parker may be fighting with his own decisions.
A noted leaker on Reddit recently gave some details on what is coming next for Holland’s version of the character. However it is important to note that these leaks cannot be confirmed, so should be taken with a grain of salt.
The basis of the new rumour comes from the post-credits scene of the latest Venom movie, starring Tom Hardy.
The scene in question shows Hardy’s Eddie Brock’s cinematic universe being merged with the MCU. Once this happened, he saw Holland’s Parker on TV, confirming a crossover in the near future.
Reddit user MyTimeToShineHello posited that this scene marks the beginning of Holland’s darkest story yet: The black-suit Spider-Man storyline.

MyTimeToShineHello wrote: “Halloween scoop for y’all. Remember it well I’ll go back to it when No Way Home is released. Tom Holland’s Peter will get the black symbiote suit in the MCU after No Way Home.”
The user went on to clarify: “To be clear, he won’t get it in the post-credit scene, but you will get a hint that this is the direction they’re going.”
This would be a major step for Holland’s character. So far, he has played a plucky high-school student with high-school problems.
If his character were to move to college, with bigger problems, and a shiny new black suit that enhances his negative emotions, things could get very dark.
Holland recently revealed that, after No Way Home, his contract with Marvel has come to an end.
That means a new Spider-Man movie is not certain – just yet.
He told GQ: “We haven’t got long filming now and it’s quite sad because this is the end of my contract after this film is up. I really don’t know what the future holds, so I am just savouring every moment, as it could potentially be the last.”
He also revealed how he has been treating this third film as an ending for his character arc.
Holland told Entertainment Weekly: “We were all treating [No Way Home] as the end of a franchise, let’s say. I think if we were lucky enough to dive into these characters again, you’d be seeing a very different version. It would no longer be the Homecoming trilogy.”
The British star added that, if he was asked to return as Peter Parker, he would “give it some time and try to build something different and tonally change the films.
“Whether that happens or not, I don’t know.”
Spider-Man No Way Home hits cinemas on December 17.
