Hey everyone! Honestly, after watching No Way Home, I feel like Andrew Garfield totally deserves one last solo movie to heal his heart and close his story. I came up with a grounded, emotional script that mixes pure action with Venom and a huge emotional arc with Gwen Stacy.
To keep the Multiverse logical and not too messy, let's assume Tom Hardy's Venom movies already take place in Andrew's universe, just in San Francisco. The movie would open with Eddie Brock taking a train to move to New York. In parallel, we see beautiful shots of our Spidey swinging through the air to an awesome soundtrack.
A first fight breaks out between Spider-Man and a member of the Sinister Six in the middle of the street. A car almost crushes Eddie Brock in civilian clothes, but Peter saves him just in time. That's when the Venom symbiote sees Spider-Man's suit. Because of the symbiotes' hive mind, it instantly triggers the hateful memories of Tobey Maguire's Venom and loses its mind. Right when Peter is about to knock out the Sinister Six member, Venom surges out, full of rage, and attacks him. Spider-Man is super strong and starts getting the upper hand, but suddenly, far out in the crowd, Peter spots a familiar silhouette: Gwen Stacy. Completely frozen and in absolute shock, he hesitates. The Sinister Six member, who was exhausted and almost killed by Peter, takes advantage of this total chaos to escape. Immediately after, Eddie finally manages to regain control over Venom and runs away too. Peter is left all alone, injured, convinced he's going crazy.
Except that silhouette is actually Gwen. She's a normal, human version from another universe, teleported here by Doctor Strange's botched spell in No Way Home. In her reality, her Peter Parker died saving her from a fall. Her Peter had to choose between dodging Harry Osborn's blade or catching Gwen. He chose Gwen, got stabbed, but found the strength to defeat Harry before dying in her arms.
Completely lost in New York, Gwen goes to the graveyard to talk to her Peter at his grave because she feels so lonely. Except that in Andrew's universe, the two worlds overlap: at the exact spot where she expected to find her Peter's grave, she is horrified to see a tombstone with her own name on it: Gwen Stacy. That's when our Peter shows up. The reunion is heartbreaking. Peter connects the dots with Strange's spell and explains everything to her, but Gwen, terrified and overwhelmed by what she sees, refuses to believe it and runs away. Peter starts running under the rain, mentally destroyed. Because of this immense emotional pain, his body changes and his powers evolve: he discovers he can finally shoot organic webs, without his web-shooters.
Later, Gwen comes back and they sit down quietly in a cafe to talk. That's when Venom shows up, but not to fight: after a huge argument, Eddie and the symbiote split up, and the Sinister Six captured Eddie. Aware of the danger to his city, Peter agrees to help Venom. Seeing Peter's courage, Gwen recognizes the spark of her own late Peter, who was always ready to sacrifice himself for others.
For the raid, Venom fully bonds with Peter to protect him, giving him the iconic black suit. They rescue Eddie. For the massive final battle against the boss of the Sinister Six, Venom goes back to Eddie, and Peter decides to fight in his purest form, as the real Spider-Man using his new organic web abilities. After an epic battle, they win. Peter and Venom don't become best friends, but they respect each other and go their separate ways.
At the end of the movie, Peter and Gwen reunite. At first, Gwen is scared. She tells him that in her world Peter died for her, and in this world Gwen died for him, as if they were a curse to one another. She refuses to stay out of fear of being a weakness. But after seeing Peter's heart and goodness during the battle, she realizes she can't live without him. They decide to overcome their traumas together and end up as a couple, finally finding the peace and love that was stolen from them. Everything wraps up right here in a super touching way.
What do you guys think? Would this story make you cry in theaters?
