Is Knull the true villain of Venom: The Last Dance? A rumor about the sequel’s post-credits scene reveals the shocking truth about his surprise appearance.
Fans were shocked when the latest trailers for Venom: The Last Dance unveiled that Knull, God of the Symbiotes and wielder of the All-Black, would be making his live-action debut in the film. The rumor mill immediately began to churn with theories and speculation about what role the villain could play in the sequel, with some assuming he’d be present in the film’s climax.
However, it seems the truth is more disappointing than fiction. According to a rumor by scooper MyTimeToShineHello, Knull’s role in Venom: The Last Dance will be relegated to a handful of scenes in space completely detached from the plot of the film, ultimately culminating in a post-credits scene setting up his role in future projects.
Knull’s Future After Venom: The Last Dance
Many assumed that Knull’s role in Venom: The Last Dance would be a way to close of Sony’s Spider-Man villain universe for good. However, it seems he’ll only be making a cameo in the sequel, with the post-credits scene setting up for a whole new storyline. This lines up with recent rumors that Tom Holland will meet Tom Hardy’s Venom in Spider-Man 4, potentially to face off against Knull in one final battle.
It has also been reported that Andy Serkis, who is stated to play Knull thanks to a prominent rumor, has signed on for multiple projects after Venom: The Last Dance. This could mean that the villain will make an appearance in Kraven the Hunter, or another potentially unannounced sequel to Sony’s Spider-Man villain universe. Morbius 2: Electric Boogaloo anyone?
