Venom: The Last Dance director says the trilogy is “just the beginning” for Knull, which means we may have to live with Sony’s Spider-Man-less Spider-Verse for a while longer

Venom’s world-creator Knull will appear in The Last Dance, but according to the film’s director, he won’t be the main villain.

As Tom Hardy himself recently confirmed, Venom: The Last Dance will be the last entry in Sony’s series, and as much as I loved those dumpster-fire movies, this might be the best. Well, that doesn’t really matter, though, because for some reason Sony decided to put Knull, the creator of Venom and the wider symbiote, in the third and final movie in the comics, while also not letting Knull He becomes the protagonist villain. OK! Director and co-writer Kelly Marcel recently spoke with IGN about the upcoming film and Knull’s role in it, where she explains what you can expect from Knull in The Last Dance , or I guess how much you expect from him in the future.

“A movie can never do Knull justice,” Marcel explains. “We’ve always known about Knull, but knew we needed to lay the foundation of Venom’s character and his relationship with Eddie before introducing him. This is just the beginning for Knull. We’re in spoiler territory now and we want to see this Some of the fun of the movie is not knowing what’s going to happen, but trust me, we know exactly how important “Knull” is to the fans, so just like we laid the foundation for “Venom,” we hope we can lay the groundwork for “Knull” “The King in Black is too powerful to do the same thing ‘once and for all’.”

She makes a very fair point: “The greatest villains in Marvel movies develop over time. Here, Knull is the menace lurking behind, testing Eddie and Venom’s team-up Absolutely extreme – but their relationship is still at the heart of the story. “My biggest question is, why did Sony decide to develop this villain now? At the end of the beloved Spider-Man: No-Spider-Man trilogy, where all other attempts to expand the universe have failed?

Yes, I’m sure a woman whose mother died while studying spiders in the Amazon, a strong, slow Quicksilver, and a vampire who may or may not have a cult would definitely be able to stand up to those considered threatening as Thanos. I guess Sony has some kind of plan there, but gosh, someone should really try to rein it in a little bit.
