Excitement is building among Marvel fans as rumors suggest that the next Spider-Man film could be titled Spider-Man: King in Black. This potential title hints at a significant connection to the symbiote storyline, one that has been slowly teased within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Fans were first introduced to the possibility of Spider-Man facing off against symbiote-related threats in Spider-Man: No Way Home. During a post-credits scene, a small piece of Venom was left behind in the MCU, teasing future encounters with the alien substance. This seemingly small detail has sparked widespread speculation about Peter Parker’s next big challenge.
The potential title King in Black is a direct nod to a famous storyline in the Marvel Comics universe, in which Knull, the God of Symbiotes, threatens the entire Marvel Universe with his army of symbiotes. The introduction of this dark and powerful villain into the cinematic realm could be monumental, tying Spider-Man’s arc to a larger, more cosmic battle.
What further adds credibility to this theory is the rumored introduction of Knull in the upcoming Venom: The Last Dance. As Venom’s own narrative moves forward, the presence of Knull could pave the way for an epic crossover between the Venom and Spider-Man franchises. This would give fans the symbiote-centric story they’ve been hoping for, with Spider-Man potentially playing a key role in a battle against the God of Symbiotes.
If these rumors prove true, Spider-Man: King in Black could signal a darker turn for the web-slinger, as he faces one of his most dangerous foes yet.
