10 Upcoming Movies NOBODY Actually Wants To See
3. Kraven The Hunter
With Spider-Man still part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Sony Pictures is forging ahead with spinoff movies focused on character who, well, really don't need their own solo outings! Putting the spotlight on Kraven the Hunter is a weird decision, and while J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is a solid enough choice for director, why is this even happening?
The casting of Jamie Foxx as Electro in Spider-Man 3 makes it clear that Kraven won't be hunting Peter Parker in Spider-Man 3, so it's not like this standalone feature will be a sequel of sorts which finally adapts "Kraven's Last Hunt."
Instead, it's going to be another Spider-Man movie without that character, giving Kraven a needlessly complicated and pointless origin story (hey, Venom!) so he can stand apart from the web-slinger. There's a reason that Kraven the Hunter doesn't have his own comic book series, and of all the spinoffs Sony has in the works, this is without a doubt one of the most unnecessary.
With any luck, it will wind up in development hell alongside that long rumoured Aunt May movie...
