Venom: The Last Dance's box office run has now led to the movie passing a major superhero film from Sony. Tom Hardy's Venom movies are the most popular and successful entries in Sony's Spider-Man Universe. As such, it was expected that Venom: The Last Dance would be able to surpass what criticized SSU films like Morbius and Madame Web did at the box office. That has come true, with the many symbiotes in Venom: The Last Dance helping the movie climb the box office, and the Sony Marvel film has now beaten a Spider-Man movie.
According to data from Box Office Mojo, Venom: The Last Dance has beaten Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse at the box office after only three weeks. Tom Hardy's final Venom movie has a worldwide total of $396.4 million against the first Spider-Verse movie's $393.6 million. With Venom: The Last Dance's ending putting a pretty final point to the Sony Marvel franchise, the Spider-Verse movies will have another shot of topping Hardy's Venom swan song at the box office, as Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse still has to debut and end the animated franchise.

Sony's Spider-Man Universe Gets A Decent Box Office Performer At Last
Venom: The Last Dance firmly cements the Tom Hardy franchise as the most popular of the SSU. The film might not reach the numbers of Hardy's other two Venom movies, which could be more an issue of the wider franchise than Venom as a character. That said, Venom: The Last Dance ranks comfortably above Morbius, which grossed $167.4 million worldwide, and Madame Web, which only made $100.5 million worldwide. However, that was expected, but after negative reviews from critics, Venom: The Last Dance topping a beloved Oscar-winning movie like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is surprising.
There are two possible reasons why Venom: The Last Dance has beaten Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse at the box office. First is the movies' placement in their respective franchises, as the third Venom movie ends a trilogy that was mostly liked by fans, while Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was the first entry in its franchise. Another reason is the fact that the Spider-Verse movies are animated, and despite their quality, both films in the franchise have not managed to beat the gross of any live-action Spider-Man movie.
Our Take On Venom: The Last Dance's Latest Box Office Update
The Venom Franchise Goes Out On A Positive Note
While Venom: The Last Dance should not pass Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse's $690.5 million worldwide, it is exciting that the Tom Hardy movie topped the box office of the first Spider-Verse film. It shows that the Venom franchise still connects with fans despite the SSU's missteps. With a reported budget of $120 million, the latest update of Venom: The Last Dance's box office, with the movie reaching $396.4 million, shows that Tom Hardy's final Venom movie is going out on a positive note, with Venom: The Last Dance being a profitable film for Sony.
