No real point to hide that he was in NWH since that included in his appearances.
* AdaptationalComicRelief: In contrast to his comic self, who has his moments of being sarcastic and funny, Eddie is portrayed much more comedically due to being a LoserProtagonist. While ''Venom'' had this primarily be shown by him freaking out by the insane situation of being bonded by Venom, who honestly does most of the heavy lifting when it comes to protecting them, ''Let There Be Carnage'' continues this with things like his VitriolicBestBuds dynamic with Venom.

This version of Venom is far more of a {{Jerkass}} to LoserProtagonist Eddie, making fun of him often which adds to their VitriolicBestBuds dynamic. ''Let There Be Carnage'' makes him more excitable ShipperOnDeck for Eddie and Anne, having [[TookALevelInKindness become slightly more nice]] since the first film and now [[JumpedAtTheCall desires to be a]] NinetiesAntiHero.

* GenreRefugee: Downplayed as Eddie and Venom are comic characters from the superhero genre. However their own film series was more of a SuperheroHorror which at the time when ''No Way Home'' came out wasn't a genre the MCU had explored, so Eddie was pretty confused to find himself in a world full of more traditional superheroes and mentioned that in his experiences aliens only want to eat people, not go around collecting stones.

He's utterly baffled by the idea that there was a team of superheroes and an alien obsessed with seemingly magic stones that killed half the universe.

* TrappedInAnotherWorld: Like the other multiversal visitors in ''No Way Home'', Eddie and Venom are this.

In this version, he instead looks at the whole ordeal with a sardonic, self-depreciating sense of humor, coming off more as EndearinglyDorky and even a NiceGuy at times, and spends a solid chunk of the movie being weirded out by the symbiote. The movie also doesn't make any overt references to his Catholic beliefs, which in the comics were a major aspect of his character.

While Eddie in the comics does share his movie counterpart's desire to protect innocent people, he indulged in a few unethical practices, was by his own admission not a particularly nice person, and -- DependingOnTheWriter -- Venom's villainy was all Eddie's fault as his rage corrupted the symbiote. Here, Eddie manages to be a positive influence on Venom. Also in contrast to ''Film/SpiderMan3'', where Eddie was a sleazy photographer who willingly forged pictures of Spider-Man to get a coveted staff job at the ''Daily Bugle'', and worked with Venom to hurt Spidey in any way they could, Eddie holds himself to a very high ethical standard (at least as far as the truth is concerned), and only lets Venom hurt really bad people.

* NinetiesAntiHero: Fittingly considering the character's popularity in that decade, Venom desperately wants to be this in ''Let There Be Carnage''. He even suggests that he and Eddie call themselves the Lethal Protector, and expresses anger at Eddie stopping him from biting the heads off criminals

* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, the symbiote actually doesn't have a name and is only referred to as the Venom symbiote due to its bond with Eddie, with "Venom" being the name of their shared form. Here, it's actually ''named'' Venom.

* NormalFishInATinyPond: While Venom does not at all seem to be a particularly ''weak'' symbiote, as it adapts to Earth's environment when two other symbiotes are killed and stands up to Riot (even if Riot has a less compatible host), it admits to Eddie that amongst its own kind it was something of a "loser". That's one of the reasons it wants to stay on Earth alone without the presence of other symbiotes.

That's one of the reasons it wants to stay on Earth alone without the presence of other symbiotes. It is shown to lack many of the same abilities shown by Riot and Carnage however, and consistently shows fear of fighting both of them suggesting that he would be considered weaker than most symbiotes.

* ResignedToTheCall: At the end of the second film, despite having been desperate to return to having some sort of normal life through most of it, he seems to accept that he will always be tied with Venom and comes round to the idea of being the "Lethal Protector" as Venom calls them.
Added DiffLines:
* JumpedAtTheCall: While not caring about people in the first film and seemingly only agreeing to only eat bad guys simply to be civil with Eddie, by the second film he's pretty much embraced the idea of being a hero and starts insisting that he and Eddie call themselves the "Lethal Protector". At the very end of the film when Eddie starts coming round to the idea, Venom excitedly claims that they will need a cape and a mask.
