Not unlike the MCU and the DCEU, and now it appears that there’s an extended Spider-Man cinematic universe as well. Another actor has been added to this world. It was announced on Friday that Alessandro Nivola has been cast as the villain in Kraven the Hunter. Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays the lead character, with Ariana DeBose, Russell Crowe, and Fred Hechinger rounding out the cast. The film is being produced by Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach. The screenplay was written by Art Marcum, Matt Holloway, and Richard Wenk.

Kraven is one of Marvel’s most legendary and infamous antagonists, and he is part of Sony Pictures’ Marvel world. He originally appeared as a villain to Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man #15 in 1964 and is one of his most well-known and fearsome foes. He’s also encountered Venom, Black Panther, and a slew of other characters on occasions. This new film will be released in theatres on January 13, 2023. J.C.
