We dont think so.
If we hear back later, well update this post.
Without the facts though, were forced to speculate.

The trailer itself toys with this.
Ejiofors character captures the goo alongside the Tony Stark stan bartender played by Cristo Fernandez.
Baron Mordo exists in that universe.
Did Mordo have an identical twin?
Did someone at Sony forget how No Way Home ended and get it wrong?
Could the trailer be a purposeful decoy or are we not supposed to question it at all?
Theres also the added mystery of Rhys Ifans appearing briefly in the trailer.
Is Ifans playing Connors here?
Or just another instance of oddball casting?
Unfortunately, we still dont know who Chiwetel Ejiofor is playing in Venom: The Last Dance.
If we find out more, well let you know.
The version of his character from the original Doctor Strange wasnt, and thats been clarified.
