Venom 3's release date has been pushed back to late next year.
The third movie in the franchise was initially expected to be released in October 2024, before getting an earlier-than-expected release date of July 12, 2024.
However, it has now been confirmed that the movie will make its debut closer to when initially expected, with the film now premiering on November 8, 2024.

Venom 3's production was reportedly paused earlier this year after the commencement of the SAG-AFTRA strike, which is now set to come to an end after a tentative deal was struck this week.
A script for the threequel was reported to have been written before the WGA strike, which came to an end last month.

Andy Serkis, who directed the second movie Let There Be Carnage, spoke last year about not coming back to helm the next movie.
“I've got so many projects that I was just about to [work on], like Animal Farm for instance," he told Slash Film. "We were just about to go into production with that, and then we delayed as Venom came up. I really have to be very on top of the ones that I've been building to do for such a long time.
“But I'm really delighted that Kelly's doing that. She's so in control of that material with Tom. The pair of them are such a great team to work with. I'm really excited to see what they're going to come up with."
Venom 3 will be released in cinemas on November 8, 2024.
