Kraven The Hunter: 10 Actors Who Could Play The Spider-Man Villain In His New Movie

7. Manu Bennett

Kraven Joel Kinnaman
The CW

Best known for his work in The Hobbit movies and TV shows like Spartacus and Arrow, Manu Bennett was by far the best part of the latter, and helped make Deathstroke a fan-favourite villain who fans were desperate to see more of after his time in The CW series ended.

In fact, Bennett arguably stole the show, outshining Stephen Amell's Green Arrow and establishing himself as perhaps the Arrowverse's best baddie. While he's certainly not a big name in Hollywood, Sony Pictures heading down the unexpected route of casting a lesser known actor could give someone like Bennett the chance to really put his own stamp on Kraven the Hunter.

Deathstroke is different enough to Kraven to ensure that we're not just going to end up with more of the same from the actor, and if the studio wants someone to make this Spider-Man villain be in equal parts terrifying and magnetic, then Bennett would be an undeniably strong choice (particularly if Sony heads down the route of him having been a mercenary).
