As a movie enthusiast with a particular fondness for comic book adaptations, I can’t help but be intrigued by the latest rumor surrounding Norman Reedus potentially playing Knull in Venom 3. The man is a versatile actor who has proven his mettle in various roles, from Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead to the antihero John Murtha in Boondock Saints.
This year’s Sony Spider-Man Universe finale trailer hints that Marvel villain Knull will step into live-action for the first time. As yet, it’s undisclosed who will portray the character when Venom 3 hits cinemas next month, but there’s a buzzing rumor suggesting The Walking Dead actor Norman Reedus could embody the mighty symbiote deity. For some time now, Reedus has been linked to a role in Venom: The Last Dance, with previous speculations including him being cast as Aunt May (though Google once listed him for that role), and the latest conjecture stems from Twitter user @SoulessCinema.
There’s been a lot of speculation, but as of now, it’s not yet confirmed that Reedus will play Knull in the Venom sequel. However, given his versatile acting career, particularly his role as Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead series and other notable projects like The Boondock Saints, Blade 2, and Death Stranding, he would certainly be a strong contender for the part. In fact, he recently shared the screen with Venom’s lead Tom Hardy in The Bikeriders. So, could this be how Reedus landed the role of Knull in the SSU? Only time will tell.
As a die-hard film enthusiast, I can’t help but notice the striking resemblance between Andrew Lincoln and the role he was destined to play: the ethereal, dark deity with white skin and black eyes. His shaggy, unkempt hair and rugged appearance make it effortless to envision him stepping into this ominous character from a comic book world reminiscent of Thomas Hardy’s tales.
Marvel Fans Back the Idea of Norman Reedus as Knull in Venom 3
Fans of the Venom series have shared their opinions on social media about the possibility of Norman Reedus playing Knull in Venom: The Last Dance. For instance, Twitter user @KhalidBrooks1 expressed, “This franchise can be quite dumb, but it’s also one of my guilty pleasures. That casting choice is nice,” while @SilentRy_ stated, “I will only watch the movie because of Norman Reedus.
Instead of eagerly anticipating Norman Reedus playing Ghost Rider in a Marvel film (a role he’s long been linked to in speculation), many fans might swiftly endorse his selection if it’s confirmed that he’ll portray Knull in live action.
Originating from the minds of Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman, Knull has solidified his status as one of Marvel Comics’ most formidable antagonists. With a background that echoes the complexity often found in comic book lore, Knull can be summarized as an evil deity and the mastermind behind symbiotes. Most recently mentioned in the trailer for Venom: The Last Dance, this character is set to debut in the Sony production. There are whispers suggesting that Knull will also appear in other titles within the SSU franchise, beyond the Venom trilogy.
Under the direction of Kelly Marcel, the movie titled “Venom: The Last Dance” features an ensemble cast that includes Tom Hardy, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach, and Stephen Graham. For more details about the plot, please find the official synopsis provided below.
In the concluding chapter of “Venom: The Last Dance,” actor Tom Hardy reprises his role as Venom, one of Marvel’s most intricate characters.
