Sony Pictures has today announced when fans will be able to bring home Kraven the Hunter, the latest film in their Spider-Man/Marvel universe, on digital platforms in the UK. The film will arrive to buy or rent on digital platforms from January 28, 2025.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Bullet Train, Kick-Ass, The Fall Guy) stars as the formidable Kraven the Hunter. Fleeing the shadow of his drug-trafficking father, portrayed by Russell Crowe (Gladiator, The Pope’s Exorcist), and their tumultuous relationship, Kraven (Taylor-Johnson) assumes a role as a vigilante, using his death-dooming abilities to brutally hunt criminals who violate his code of honor. As his infamy grows, Kraven’s enemies strike at those he holds dearest in a bid to annihilate him. Striving to succeed in his plight of moral superiority, Kraven edges closer to his ultimate destiny – becoming one of the world’s most iconic villains, forever on the hunt for his next great trophy.
The film is the action-packed, standalone story of how one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays Kraven, a man whose complex relationship with his ruthless gangster father, Nikolai Kravinoff (Russell Crowe), starts him down a path of vengeance with brutal consequences, motivating him to become not only the greatest hunter in the world, but also one of its most feared.
