Summary
TheKraven the Hunterruntime may have been revealed, and if true, it shares something in common with past Sony Spider-Man Universe films likeVenom: The Last DanceandMadame Web.
Kraven the Hunteris the next installment of Sony’sSpider-ManUniverse franchise. MultipleKraven the Hunterdelayshave some feeling it could be Sony’s worst Marvel film yet, which wouldn’t be unheard of for the floundering franchise. All 3Venommovies,Morbius, andMadame Webreceived negative reviews and (except theVenommovies) were box office bombs. Sony likely hopesKraven the Hunterwill reverse these misfortunes, but regardless, a new rumor claims the film’s runtimes will continue a different Spider-Man Universe trend.

This would mean none of theSony Spider-Man Universe filmsto date will cross the 2-hour mark.

Responses to theKraven the Hunterruntime rumor from Reddit users have been harsh. Many argued that Sony’s Spider-Man Universe movies are bad and a longer runtime would not benefit any of them. “You think these movies are bad now, imagine if they were 2+ hours long,” wrote @TheCommish-17. Even fans who enjoyed theVenommovies argued they did not need to be 2 hours long or more. “I loved all the venom movies personally but do any of these movies really need those extra 4 minutes to push it over the mark?” pondered @Josephsmama23405. Those sentiments were echoed by @BigDaddyKrool, who wrote, “Good tbh. These movies can either bea drag like Morbiusor fun/funny like Venom, but if they go on for any longer, THEN I’d probably become a full-blown hater. The schtick only works when it’s bite-sized.”
These reactions are likely a sign that fans expectKraven the Hunterto continue Sony’s trend of mediocrity. If the film wants to emulateVenom’s success, it will have to overcome the negative perception of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe following the disastrousMorbiusandMadame Web. Unlike those two flops,Kraven the Hunterdoes have the benefit of centering on a more well-known Spider-Man villain, though he’s arguably nowhere near as popular as Venom.
Kraven the Hunteris scheduled to be released in theaters on Jul 16, 2025.
