Spider-Man: No Way Home - 8 Villains Who Could Join The MCU's Sinister Six

Doctor Octopus, Electro and the Sandman were all original members of the Sinister Six in the comics, and the MCU could potentially bring in another of the first iteration of this villainous team.

In the pages of Marvel Comics, after failing to take down Spider-Man on his own, Kraven the Hunter joined together with five more likeminded rogues to try and achieve his goal.

Sergei Kravinoff was a skilled hunter, and his goal to prove himself as the best ever brought him into the path of Spider-Man. The Russian fighter that honed his skills in Africa with voodoo and magical potions became something of a rival of Spider-Man, as he desperately tried to take him down and claim his mask as a trophy.

There is currently a lot of buzz around the character, as he's been announced to be starring in his own movie as part of Sony's Spider-Man Universe. The lines between both the MCU and Sony’s own shared realm are getting increasingly blurry, and with Michael Keaton set to star in Morbius, and No Way Home proving that pretty much anything is now possible, Kraven could make the jump across to Marvel Studios.

There is the obstacle of the character in the solo Sony movie being cast as Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who of course has already brought Pietro Maximoff to life in the MCU, but Mahershala Ali, Gemma Chan and Kenneth Choi have all proved that it’s not impossible to play two different characters in a universe as wide as the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
