Explode Your Expectations: Unbridled Venom & Spiderman Crossover Discussion with Tom Hardy

Tom Hardy Explains How Close His Venom Came to Crossing Over With Spider-Man

In a recent conversation with the Discourse Podcast from The Playlist, Tom Hardy opened up about his experience as Venom and how close he came to crossing over with Spider-Man. According to Hardy, the process of bringing Tom Holland’s Spider-Man into Venom’s world “got as close as I could possibly imagine getting.”

The 44-year-old actor didn’t elaborate further on what specifically held back a potential crossover, but hinted that it might be due to studio politics, carefully affirming the suggestions made by Discourse Podcast host Mike DeAngelo. When asked about his enthusiasm for making such a crossover, Hardy’s motivations were clear: “Fundamentally, for me, it would be for the kids.”

Hardy emphasized the importance of these characters in the eyes of children, stating that they are a crucial part of many young fans’ experiences with the Marvel universe. He did not elaborate on whether or not he was able to make his vision a reality.

It’s worth noting that no official statement has been made by Marvel Studios regarding any crossover between Venom and Spider-Man franchises.
