Kraven The Hunter Casts Villain In Alessandro Nivola

Kraven The Hunter Casts Villain In Alessandro Nivola

Deadline reports Kraven the Hunter cast’s it’s villain in Alessandro Nivola. The actor is most probably well know from the recent movie The Many Saints of Newark, which of course is a prequel to The Sopranos TV series. If you don’t know, Nivola is the one holding the cloth to hsi head in the image above. For now Deadline do not have a character name of who Nivola is playing, but they do say he will play the movie’s villain. Given that as a fan., I think of Kraven as more of a villain himself to Spider-Man, I can’t really think who the bad guy will be?

Assuming that is, this is a character taken from the pages of the comic books. Certainly Kraven and his brother Chameleon are fairly antagonistic towards one another and Chameleon is further down the villain scale than Kraven is. However it was Deadline themselves who reported that Chameleon will be played by Fred Hechinger. We also have Ariana DeBose playing Calypso. Additionally, Russell Crowe is rumored to play the father of Kraven and Chameleon. However that as yet is not confirmed even though Crowe’s appearance is.

I am drawing a blank with an appropriate comic based villain for Kraven. However I admit my comic book knowledge only covers a period in my youth. I believe at that time, I only ever read books with Kraven fighting Spider-Man. Perhaps some readers of a different generation can speculate more about who Nivola could play?

I will say the cast Sony are acquiring here for Kraven isn’t bad at all. Kraven still feel like it’s a movie that shouldn’t be made. However, like always, I genuinely hope to be proved wrong. I guess my excitement for Kraven may be dependent on whether Morbius is a good movie or not?

What do you think as Kraven the Hunter casts villain in Alessandro Nivola? Thoughts below.
