Plot details for Venom 3 are currently unknown, however, Kelly Marcel is writing the screenplay from a story she and Hardy wrote. Marcel will also be making her feature directorial debut with the outing, which she and Hardy are both producing.

Hardy revealed the movie was in pre-production in February by sharing a deleted scene on Instagram.

"Whilst working on V3 pre prep @lelping (Kelly Marcel) @sonypictures @sony @venommovie this throwback came up #cuttingroomfloor #byetom #thankstom," he wrote in the caption.

It is currently not known if any of Hardy's co-stars, such as Michelle Williams, will return for Venom 3, or if the movie will place the character within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Outside of playing Keeley Jones in Ted Lasso, Temple is also known for films such as Killer Joe, Atonement and Maleficent and TV shows including Vinyl and The Offer. She is currently filming the fifth season of Noah Hawley's anthology series Fargo.
