Who would you rather see first: Kraven or Mysterio?


Let's think that the movie execs understand they shouldn't stretch multiple villains into the picture, and should only focus on one villain. We know the next villain will be one we have yet to see on the big screen yet... The obvious choice is Scorpion, seeing as he is already cast, and already has a vengeance for Spidey.

There are plenty of contenders for Spider-Man villains who have yet to appear to have their moment to shine, but the most obvious has to be the final two members of the Sinister Six, Kraven and Mysterio... So, if you had to see one of them first, which one would you prefer to see?

They could always do something similar to Shocker in Homecoming, cast a lesser known villain as a Supporting Role... I could see Chameleon working alongside Kraven in a movie... And while I thought it was a funny gag and perfect casting for the unreleased Raimi movie, let's not make Mysterio into a gag villain by being unmasked as Bruce Campbell in the first act. (Though, I admit, I would have loved to see the Raimi films continue, only to call the full Sinister Six together, and Mysterio be the bumbling idiot comic relief villain.)

Kraven the Hunter for sure!!
Except they would have to fix his stupid comic book death
THAT was total bullshit and i have always had that on my mind for nearly 30 years now...totally lazy writing

I'd like to see the next Spider-Man start on the set of a movie about Tony Stark's life starring Simon Williams (aka Wonder Man played by Nathan Fillion, in a role that was cut from Guardians of the Galaxy 2) and something goes down there that introduces special effects wizard Quentin Beck as Mysterio.

Mysterio but unfortunatley both Mysterio and Kraven are going to be in a movie in Sony's non MCU universe along with Venom, Smythe, Black Cat, and Silver Sable.

Having someone like Kraven would be badass, but I choose Mysterio, easily. Aside from seeing him as a more fascinating villain, I’d be super interested in seeing how the effects and scenarios involving his character would be executed.

This is as long as Marvel and Sony could compromise, of course..

Update...

Well it’s official: we ARE getting Mysterio! This is rather old news by now, but I’m glad the SM villain I was hoping to see in the sequel will finally make his big screen debut. Yea boy!

And let’s not forget Kraven. He is getting his own solo film and word is Spider-Man is set to star in it. But is there ANY chance this villain might appear in Far From Home first? Who knows. Shoot, Chameleon and even Hydro-Man have been rumored for the Spidey sequel. Interesting times...

Mysterio probably looks better onscreen than Kraven, but I always preferred Kraven in the comics.
