Kraven the Hunter to Debut on Streaming Platform Ahead of Release

Sony Pictures is bringing the origin story of an iconic Marvel villain to the big screen with Kraven the Hunter. But if you prefer to catch it on your favorite streaming platform instead, there’s only one place where you’ll find it.

The year has been a rollercoaster for Sony’s Marvel universe, with some hits and misses. Following Madame Web’s disappointing reception, Venom 3 saw Tom Hardy’s final bow as the anti-hero, pulling in solid box office numbers despite mixed reviews.

Kraven the Hunter promises a different vibe: it’s R-rated, loaded with practical action, and the director is urging fans to give it a shot. Whether you opt for the theaters or want to stream it, here’s the lowdown on how to watch.

For those eager to catch Kraven the Hunter, mark your calendars for December 13, 2024, as it hits cinemas exclusively. Although it’s up against some tough competition like Wicked and Moana 2, the early buzz around its action scenes is positive.

If you miss it in theaters, fret not. It’s slated to land on Netflix in the US after its cinematic run. Sony inked a deal with Netflix to premiere its films on the platform post-theater release, offering a convenient streaming option for viewers.

While there’s no formal confirmation yet, you can likely expect Kraven the Hunter to debut on Netflix by April 2025. Judging by the timelines of previous Sony releases, it could follow a similar pattern, arriving on streaming platforms after a few months.

And for Disney Plus subscribers, don’t worry – Kraven the Hunter will eventually find its way to the streaming giant after its Netflix stint. Thanks to a deal between Sony and Disney, you can anticipate its arrival on Disney Plus around September 2026.
