The film, which is being launched by Sony in affiliation with Marvel, tells the story of the titular antihero, who’s a legendary nemesis of Spider-Man within the Marvel comedian books.

The trailer confirmed the character, who’s being performed by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, being raised with an iron fist, earlier than getting attacked by a lion and, inexplicably, ingesting a few of its blood.

Thus far, Sony’s Marvel-adjacent motion pictures have introduced Venom, Morbius, the Vulture and Scorpion to the identical universe.

At the second, solely a few them have truly encountered Spider-Man, however collectively, they make up a big portion of the Sinister Six – a set of (largely) animal-themed dangerous guys who actually hate that pesky web-head.

Well, good news comedian e book lovers: the ultimate moments of the Kraven trailer showcase Aleksei Sytsevich (performed by Alessandro Nivola) injecting one thing into his physique.

Yep, you guessed it: His pores and skin then began turning gray and scaly, as he tried to ominously say: “Don’t you want to know why they call me the Rhino?”

Either method, nothing goes to occur until Tom Holland indicators on to play Peter Parker as soon as once more – which has not but been confirmed.
