Venom 3: Andy Serkis Is Knull

Venom 3: Andy Serkis Is Knull

With tickets now on sale, the cat is now out of the bag as it is being reported Andy Serkis is playing Knull in Venom 3.

Of course, not only did Andy Serkis direct Venom 2, but he is also known for his motion-capture work.

It’s also being said that Andy Serkis will appear as Knull in additional projects.

The info is being reported by numerous scoopers and comes ahead of the film’s release on Oct. 25.

It was previously thought Rhys Ifans might have been playing Knull in Venom 3, but now it appears that Rhys Ifans will be playing a different character.

Long story short, in Marvel Comics lore, Knull is the god of the symbiotes, and if they let it happen, could have MCU connections. Knull is connected to the Celestials, as seen in Eternals, and Hela and Gorr the God Butcher from the Thor movies.

Venom 3 is supposed to be the last film of that franchise, so if they do continue to use Andy Serkis as Knull in some way, it will either be in a rebooted Venom franchise or new Sony or MCU films.

Rumors have offered the Tom Hardy Venom and Tom Holland Spider-Man are finally going to connect, so who knows? Maybe it will be a Venom and Spider-Man team-up against Andy Serkis and Knull.
