KravenTheHunter star Ariana DeBose teases the film's departure from Sony's other Marvel movies, saying, '...It’s exciting to be a part of something that feels like it’s taking a step in a different direction.'
Ariana DeBose, who was recently cast as Calypso Ezili in Sony's Spider-Man spin-off movie Kraven the Hunter, has hinted at how the upcoming film will differ from previous Marvel titles. Starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson as the title character, Kraven the Hunter will take place in the same universe as 2018's Venom, its 2021 sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage, and 2022's Morbius.
Not much is known about the details of Kraven the Hunter's plot, but the title character has been a fan-favorite villain of Spider-Man in Marvel lore since 1964. Renowned as a fierce big-game hunter, he often makes it his mission to defeat the web-slinger, believing it will solidify his status as the best in the world. As for Calypso, she first appeared in Marvel Comics in 1980. She's a voodoo priestess who also often finds herself at odds with Spider-Man.
Also joining the cast of Kraven the Hunter are Christopher Abbott, Alessandro Nivola, Russell Crowe, Fred Hechinger, and Levi Miller, although their roles have not yet been revealed. The movie will be directed by J. C. Chandor, who helmed such acclaimed projects as Margin Call and Triple Frontier . Recently, some photos from the set of Sony's upcoming film seemed to show Taylor-Johnson filming a big action scene, so it looks like the movie will not be short on excitement.
As far as Sony's Spider-Man film franchise is concerned, things honestly aren't looking too great. Venom, Venom 2, and Morbius all received less than favorable reviews upon release, with the most recent one, Morbius, killing a lot of fans' hope for the franchise's future. However, given the director's track record and DeBose's words, it seems like there may be hope yet for Kraven the Hunter. This movie might just be the one to set the franchise back on track.
