Flash Thompson actor Tony Revolori is ready to return for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, whether he becomes Agent Venom or not in the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel.
Revolori has so far appeared in all three Marvel Studios-produced Spider-Man movies — Homecoming (2017), Far From Home (2019), and No Way Home (2021) — as Flash Thompson. The latter ended with Peter Parker’s former classmate being accepted to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Speaking with The Direct on the Marshmallow red carpet, Revolori shared that he was hoping to return for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the upcoming fourth solo movie for Tom Holland’s fan-favorite webslinger. He also expressed hope that a future MCU movie would see him adopt his comic book character’s Agent Venom identity.
“Yeah, you know, look, I’ve read the comics that everyone’s read. I would be really, really f-ing excited to do something like that. That would be really cool,” Revolori stated when asked if he wanted to see Flash become Agent Venom in the MCU. “I have no idea what or if or when or maybe, and we’ll see. Look, the hope is to do it, the dream is to do it. And we’ll see if it ever happens. And if it doesn’t, they’re making great shit regardless that I will watch over and over and over again, and I’m just happy to have been a part of it.”
Who is Agent Venom?
In the comics, Flash joined the United States Army after graduation, losing both of his legs in the Iraq War. In 2011, he became the superhero Agent Venom in The Amazing Spider-Man #654 after being bound to the Venom symbiote, which he controls via drugs. A few years later, he took on the alias of Agent Anti-Venom after becoming the new host of the Anti-Venom symbiote. Agent Venom was previously adapted for the animated series Ultimate Spider-Man.

Casting is currently underway for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, with Stranger Things’ Sadie Sink being the first new addition to the cast beyond Holland. Shang-Chi filmmaker Destin Daniel Cretton has been tapped to direct Brand New Day, who will be working from a screenplay written by Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers, who have scripted all the MCU-set Spider-Man movies.
The fourth Spider-Man movie is expected to begin filming as soon as Holland has wrapped his role in Christopher Nolan’s epic fantasy film The Odyssey. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is scheduled to hit theaters on July 31, 2026, as part of Phase 6 of the MCU.
