Venom 4

Speculation is running wild that Venom 4 may already be in early development, with whispers suggesting that Sony is considering adapting the legendary King in Black storyline for Tom Hardy’s next outing as Eddie Brock. While no official confirmation has been made, multiple sources have hinted that the film could bring one of the most fearsome villains in Marvel history—Knull, the God of Symbiotes—to the big screen.

Fans have long speculated about Knull’s cinematic debut, especially after Venom: Let There Be Carnage and Venom: The Last Dance both teased deeper lore about the symbiote race. With the King in Black storyline being one of the most significant Venom arcs in recent Marvel comics, it’s no surprise that Sony may be eyeing it for Venom 4.

Knull, the ancient and godlike creator of the symbiotes, first appeared in Marvel Comics in 2018 and has since become one of the most powerful entities in the Marvel Universe. If Venom 4 does indeed adapt this storyline, it could see Eddie Brock and Venom forced to unite with other symbiotes—and possibly even Spider-Man—to take on an intergalactic war against Knull’s dark forces.
