Notable Insider Reveals Knull’s True Plan for the Upcoming ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ (& It Involves Carnage)

Since the release of the latest major trailer for Venom: The Last Dance, one topic has dominated discussions: the shocking revelation that Knull is joining the franchise. This announcement validated numerous fan theories about the true antagonist of the Venom series and confirmed a long-standing rumor.

As you may know, Knull, the formidable overlord of the Symbiotes, will make his on-screen debut in Venom: The Last Dance. This is a significant development, signaling that Sony aims to give Venom and Eddie a fitting sendoff in a high-profile film, and the strategy appears to be working, as interest in the movie continues to grow.

However, our understanding of Knull’s role in the movie remains limited, sparking a flurry of fan theories about the character. In this article, we’ll explore one such theory—more specifically, a rumor from a well-regarded insider.

As mentioned earlier, Knull’s debut has been confirmed, but we still don’t know—at least officially—who will portray him or what his role in the film will be.

This uncertainty has led to a surge of rumors and theories circulating online. Recently, fans took to the internet to speculate about Knull’s motivations in the movie, and a well-known insider offered a potential reason for his appearance.

This insight was shared on Twitter (now X) by Alex Perez, who posted the following information on the platform:

In the comics, ‘Carnage Born’ actually explores Knull’s origin story. The story begins with Cletus Kasady being incarcerated and tormented by his past. His connection to the Carnage symbiote is explored in-depth, showing us how their bond has affected him physically and mentally.

The story reveals how Knull, the ancient god of the symbiotes, plays a defining role in Carnage’s return. As Knull seeks to reclaim control over his symbiotes, he exerts his influence over Kasady, leading to a new powerful, and terrifying transformation.

As you can see, Alex P. believes that Venom: Carnage Born reveals the key to Knull’s appearance, and here’s what fans have proposed:

So, which option do you think Alex is alluding to? We’re here to help—it’s the last one. Several fans have speculated about this possibility, and it seems that Alex is specifically referencing that idea, which makes sense as it could seamlessly integrate into the story.

Additionally, it could pave the way for Knull to enter the MCU, especially since a fragment of Venom remains there, providing a rationale for his appearance in that universe.

This definitely sounds like an exciting possibility, and we hope that Sony and Marvel choose to explore this theory, as it could lead to a fantastic Knull storyline within their franchises.
