On the tweet where they announced Tom Hardy for the lead role, the refer to it as "Sony's Marvel Universe" (SMU). So unless someone from Marvel Studios, like Kevin Feige, confirms it, I think it's safe to assume that the two films won't be in the MCU, and therefore won't have Category:Earth-199999 attached to it, which the page Venom (film) currently doesn't. So once we reach the date 'Venom' comes out, October 5, 2018 (assuming it will even come out to begin with), and nothing has been confirmed regarding it, we can create a TRN for both films.
