Actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who plays the title role in Kraven the Hunter, revealed in a pre-taped greeting to CinemaCon 2023 that it will be Sony’s first R-rated Marvel movie. The studio’s Spider-Man and Venom movies as well as Morbius have all been rated PG-13.
Sony presented a roughly two-minute teaser trailer from Kraven exclusively for CinemaCon attendees, meaning it won’t be released online. The footage has tons of gruesome kills in it as Kraven takes out poachers and mercs; think Logan, Rambo or John Wick-levels of bloody violence.
The footage showed Russell Crowe as the Russian father of Taylor-Johnson’s Sergei Kravinoff (he speaks in an American accent). The very end of the footage reveals Alessandro Nivola is playing the Rhino. The skin on his arm starts to transform into rhino skin. There's also a very brief shot of Sergei holding up the classic fur costume Kraven wore in the Marvel comics.
Kraven the Hunter debuted in Marvel Comics’ Amazing Spider-Man #15. He considered himself the greatest hunter in the world and deemed the wall-crawler the ultimate prey to catch. Taylor-Johnson previously said he liked playing Kraven because he’s "not an alien, or a wizard. He's just a hunter, a human with conviction. An animal lover and a protector of the natural world."
The actor also called Kraven "one of Marvel's most iconic, notorious anti-heroes" and "Spider-Man's number one rival."
J.C. Chandor (Triple Frontier) directs Kraven from a screenplay by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk. The film is scheduled to open in cinemas on October 6, 2023.
