Kraven the Hunter 2024
Science fiction actionSuperhero
A 2024 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character, Kraven the Hunter is the sixth entry in Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU). Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays the title role, with Ariana DeBose, Fred Hechinger, Alessandro Nivola, Christopher Abbott, and Russell Crowe also starring. The movie was directed by J.C. Chandor and written by Richard Wenk, Art Marcum and Matt Holloway. It focuses on Kraven's connection with his father and how he becomes the greatest hunter.
The character had been considered for several film projects prior to Sony's interest in a standalone movie, which began in mid-2017 as part of their new shared universe. Wenk was brought on in August 2018, while Chandor was in talks to direct in August 2020 and confirmed in May 2021 after Taylor-Johnson joined the cast. Principal photography occurred from late March through mid-June 2022 across London, Iceland, and Glasgow.
After two years of delays, Kraven the Hunter premiered in the U.S. on December 13, 2024 under Sony Pictures Releasing. Critics gave it poor reviews and it underperformed at the box office, earning $62 million globally against a budget ranging from $110 to 130 million.
