Sony's arm of the MCU is, to put it lightly, a bit of an odd duck. Tom Hardy's charming and unexpected Venom may have paved the way for some interest in the superhero-less superhero universe, but since a spectacularly fizzled post credits scene teased and then immediately revoked his participation in the greater MCU, things have been confusing at best. It's not entirely clear where the Sony anti-heroes fit into the bigger plan or what that bigger plan even is.

One thing is for sure, however--Sony has no plans on stopping the franchise train with symbiotes. And, for better or worse, we now have Morbius to add to the mix.
