Did the New ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Teaser Just Hint at a Doctor Strange Cameo?

Venom: The Last Dance is set to conclude Sony’s Venom trilogy later this year, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most anticipated films of the year. This excitement stems from several factors, including Tom Hardy’s undeniable charisma and the appearance of the Symbiote overlord, Knull.

In anticipation, fans have been poring over newly-released content, from the main trailer to several teasers that continue to drop. Each new release reveals more details, making it hard to keep up with all the buzz surrounding the film.

The latest teaser features a scene where a Xenophage emerges from a yellow-hued portal, strikingly similar to the portals Doctor Strange conjures in the MCU. Could this be a clue that Doctor Strange will appear in Venom: The Last Dance? Read on to dive deeper into this theory!

Before we continue with our analysis, let us start with the following post:

As you can see, the Xenophage emerges from a portal that closely resembles Doctor Strange’s signature portal, though it’s not an exact match.

While it’s possible this portal could be a variation used by another character, many fans have been quick to speculate that Doctor Strange—or someone from his universe—could be making an appearance in the upcoming Venom movie.

This particular scene comes from a teaser, and here’s the full video for you to check out:

The videos provide a clearer explanation, confirming that the portal in question is not Doctor Strange’s but a different type of portal, likely linked to Knull. So, based on this scene, it seems Doctor Strange won’t be appearing in Venom: The Last Dance, and the portal isn’t connected to him in any way.

It appears more likely that the portal is tied to Knull, who seems capable of sending Xenophages through these gateways. This devastating power could hint at how Knull might eventually connect to the MCU, if the crossover rumors turn out to be true. But that’s a discussion for another article.
