After seeing Kraven the Hunter<\/em><\/a> in theaters in December 2024,\u00a0I couldn\u2019t stop thinking about one detail of the movie. Kraven<\/em>\u2019s arrival on Netflix this week \u2014 its debut for the streaming audience \u2014 brought it back to the forefront of my mind. Kraven<\/em> was a huge box-office flop<\/a>, scoring around $60 million worldwide on a $110 million production budget, but it\u2019s the kind of flop that sparks morbid curiosity. This weekend, many, many <\/em>Netflix subscribers will pop this flick onto their televisions or second screens, and find out that there was a superhero movie in 2024 where a white guy on a trip to Africa got animal powers by drinking a voodoo potion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My issue here isn\u2019t about accuracy to the source material, to be sure. It is <\/em>technically true that Kraven got his powers of enhanced strength and speed from a potion he stole from an African \u201cwitch doctor.\u201d (It was 1964, in his first appearance, and I suppose Stan Lee and Steve Ditko were having a real \u201cbroad stereotypes\u201d kind of month.) But most modern comics politely don\u2019t mention it, because, you know, the use of \u201cvoodoo<\/a>\u201d as shorthand for \u201cjungle magic\u201d is racist. Not to mention a real tonal swerve for a movie trying to be more Eastern Promises<\/em><\/a> than Indiana Jones.<\/p>\n

But then again, maybe my complaint is<\/em> about accuracy, in a roundabout way. Sony\u2019s interconnected cinematic universe of Spider-Man-less Spider-Man movies (Morbius<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>Madame Web<\/em><\/a>,<\/em> the<\/a> Venom<\/a> movies<\/a>, and now Kraven<\/em><\/a>) were born of a mandate to bend secondary comics characters into new molds as self-serious heroes or antiheroes in superhero action-thrillers. Kraven the Hunter<\/em> might be the best example of how that limited brief was prioritized over other good and obvious choices.<\/p>\n

If you had to choose one of Spider-Man\u2019s out-and-out villains to hold down his own movie franchise, Kraven is about as adaptable a character as you can get. After all, he\u2019s almost not even originally from Marvel\u2019s comics. <\/p>\n

In the grand tradition of great ideas that Stan Lee borrowed and polished up with superhero clothes, Kraven (full name Sergei Kravinoff) is just a Marvel adaptation of General Zaroff from Richard Connell\u2019s seminal 1924 short story \u201cThe Most Dangerous Game,\u201d<\/a> the origin of the saying that man<\/em> is the most dangerous prey for a hunter to subdue. Zaroff is the villain of the piece, an aristocratic Russian big-game hunter who contrives to hunt unwilling human victims on a private preserve for his own enjoyment. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Most Dangerous Game\u201d had already inspired several loose or direct adaptations in film, radio, and television by the time Lee and Ditko debuted Kraven in 1964\u2019s Amazing Spider-Man <\/em>#15. The story of a man with immense resources who uses them to pursue his terrifying desire to hunt people like they were trophy animals had already become a general trope in midcentury adventure fiction, much in the same way the battle royale<\/a> has made a big splash in modern action movies and TV: It was a useful structure for presenting a variety of resonant metaphors. Kraven himself was just one facet of the larger trope<\/a> \u2014 or a natural continuation of it into the superhero sphere, however you want to look at it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And Kraven remains one of the most flexible villains in Marvel Comics. Traditionally, Spider-Man is his nemesis, but in actual practice, he\u2019s been pitted against just about everybody. Creators can make him hunt Black Panther or Captain America, or even make him close, personal friends with Squirrel Girl. He\u2019s a superbly efficient hook because he\u2019s really just a light reskin of a broader trope that\u2019s been used in works as tonally disparate as Gilligan\u2019s Island<\/em><\/a> and Criminal Minds<\/em><\/a>. And it\u2019s not like villains can\u2019t anchor a movie franchise \u2014 just look at the horror genre. Kraven and the Predator<\/a> are the same archetype. <\/p>\n

But even when handed a potentially universal boogeyman, Sony\u2019s mandate was to cram him into familiar framing: a morally questionable hero of an action-thriller set in a world largely without superheroes. The filmmakers took the guy whose iconic role is hunting innocent human beings for sport until a hero triumphs over him, and made him the Punisher with a lion head motif to his shirt instead of a skull.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think this is necessarily because the folks behind Kraven<\/em>, or other Sony Spider-Man movies, don\u2019t see the potential that the source comics revealed in these characters. Both Kraven actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Kraven<\/em> director J.C. Chandor have said<\/a> they were indebted to J.M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck\u2019s defining 1987 crossover Kraven\u2019s Last Hunt<\/em>, and hoped that they might one day get to adapt that classic story. <\/p>\n

But that was always going to be a tall order in the structure of Sony\u2019s Spider-Man Films Without Spider-Man (formerly \u201cSPUMC<\/a>\u201d), considering that Kraven\u2019s Last Hunt<\/em> is a story about Kraven losing his marbles after years of losses to\u2026 Spider-Man. He hunts down, subdues, and buries the wall-crawler alive so he can don Spidey\u2019s costume and act out his crime-fighting duties while maintaining his own brutal hunting methods. At the end, Kraven feels so personally fulfilled by defeating Spider-Man and (in his eyes) successfully doing the hero\u2019s job that he releases Spider-Man and takes his own life. He\u2019s an Alexander with no more worlds to conquer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Given all that, there is simply no removing Spider-Man, and his lengthy preestablished rivalry with Kraven, from Kraven\u2019s Last Hunt<\/em>. And Taylor-Johnson and Chandor aren\u2019t the only Sony Spider-Man figureheads who seem to know<\/a> that the franchise will always be a two-legged stool without the webslinger.<\/p>\n

But on the other hand, it\u2019s equally difficult to imagine a story in which Taylor-Johnson\u2019s Kraven \u2014 a grim adult man who turned his back on his crime-lord family and dedicated himself to murdering the most difficult-to-find criminals of the world \u2014 sees the defeat and replacement of Tom Holland\u2019s Spider-Man, a peppy 17-year-old do-gooder, as an act so personally fulfilling that he would consider it his life\u2019s crowning achievement. <\/p>\n

\"Spider-Man<\/p>\n

And that, I think, is at the heart of the voodoo potion choice. If you\u2019re making a Kraven movie where he doesn\u2019t have a rivalry with Spider-Man and he\u2019s not even a villain, maybe you have<\/em> to keep the voodoo potion. Maybe, once you\u2019ve changed practically everything about the character to aim at an ill-fitting brief instead of a resonant update or revamp, all that\u2019s left of the original property to mark it as an adaptation are the most extraneous, dated, and cumbersome comic book details. Like a voodoo potion, an Amazonian spider cult<\/a>, a ferociously contrived medical-experiment-to-vampire transformation<\/a>, or the Venom franchise\u2019s gradual deflation into a series of comics references lashed haphazardly into a single script<\/a>. <\/p>\n

If the priority isn\u2019t to make the best adaptation, but to make a mold-fitting adaptation, it becomes a lot harder to make a good<\/em> adaptation. With Sony\u2019s admission that it has no current plans to continue its Spider-Man-less Spider-Man Universe<\/a>, Kraven the Hunter<\/em> doesn\u2019t just stand as a capstone on that effort, but as the best example of its flaws. The problem was never that there are only a couple of ways to make a great movie out of Kraven the Hunter. The problem is that there are a ton of ways, and Sony still picked this one. <\/p>\n
