Kraven the Hunter
Sony’sSpider - Manspinoff machine simply refuses to halt churning , as theKraven the Huntermovie finds its conductor inTripleFrontier ’s J.C. Chandor . The currently not officially title Kraven movie is just one of an impressive slate of Spider - side by side labor in development at Sony . These admit aMadame Webmovie to be take by S.J. Clarkson and a just - harbinger female - led project ( perchance featuring Spider - Woman ) from Olivia Wilde .
Kraven the Hunter , whose real name is Sergei Kravinoff , is one of the most exciting characters without a solo movie in Sony ’s Marvel Universe . A merciless but honor - bond hunter with a tendency to flip - bust between villain and anti - hero , Kraven ’s initial motivation was to hunt down and shoot down Spider - Man just to prove what a great hunter he was . Theiconic " Kraven ’s Last Hunt " arcincreased his popularity , and give-and-take is it will influence Richard Wenk ’s script for the film .

Deadlinereports Chandor is in talk with Sony to maneuver theKraven the Huntermovie . There ’s no word from the studio as to whether the stay on progress on Kraven ’s solo field day is tie to him possibly being the villain ofSpider - Man : Homecoming 3 , which has n’t yet commence filming . It ’s also unknown at this time if Wilde or Chandor ’s movie will release first .
Chandor is most recognizable as a director for his criminal offence dramaA Most Violent Yearand , more in the vein of big - budget action at law , Netflix’sTriple Frontier . While the latter had a budget of over $ 100 million , it does n’t compare much to the money stream into a tentpole superhero moving picture . Sony find success with the firstVenom , at least enough to justifyVenom 2 , and Chandor has point , if nothing else , an aptitude for directing action in his organic structure of work . Kraven is a character who can hold his own flick , regardless of the potential involvement of Tom Holland ’s Spider - Man , and this is primed to be another cash cow for the resourceful idea at Sony ’s Marvel squad
The mien of Sony ’s purelySpider - Mananti - hero universe , formally called the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters , is a welcome sort of B - picture show kingdom of the superhero genre . They give off the smell of former 2000s superhero movies , with a whole tone that equilibrize edgy and goofy in a fashion that set it apartfrom the Marvel Cinematic Universeand DC Extended Universe . To see Sony going full steam forwards with multiple projects is exciting because it suggests they really lie with what it is they want from the movies they have on deck . Hopefully , Chandor ’s vision forKraven the Hunterwill lean into the character ’s strengths and be a winnings for Sony .
