You Asked and Sony Delivered: We Believe in ‘Norman Reedus is Playing Knull’ Rumor

With the release of Venom: The Last Dance, there are rumors that iconic actor Norman Reedus will allegedly play the role of the villain in the film!

It’s finally here. The “Dance” has arrived. No, not Dance of the Dragons… that will take a long time. However, Tom Hardy’s Venom: The Last Dance is almost here and the world is very excited.

With the launch of the trailer, an old rumor has resurfaced about Norman Reedus, especially since a mysterious character was shown in the film. Naturally, we would love for Reedus to be the villain in Venom 3.

Norman Reedus Is Knull?

Well, the character of Knull was introduced in the latest trailer of Venom: The Last Dance but his face is never revealed. Venom goes as far as to shush Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock when he says Knull’s name.

It has been hinted that Knull is a terrifying villain who is scary to behold. The face of the character wasn’t shown. However, what was shown in the trailer seemed to be enough for people to think that Norman Reedus is allegedly portraying the role.

Taking to X, fans theorized that Norman Reedus is the big bad that Venom is so scared of. A source even claimed that Reedus is confirmed to be Knull but it cannot be verified.

However, it has not been mentioned anywhere that Reedus will be portraying the role of Knull in Venom: The Last Dance. As far as people are concerned, it remains a rumor.

Not to play the devil’s advocate, but it would be a really great choice if Norman Reedus were to be cast as Knull in the upcoming movie. The actor has everything that one might need for an antagonist role (including great acting skills).

Why Norman Reedus Is Perfect For Knull

Finding fame in 2010, Reedus joined the cast of The Walking Dead as Darryl Dixon. The actor found worldwide fame and love for his portrayal and his career only ever went upwards after the project.

Movies and projects aside, Reedus worked alongside the legendary Hideo Kojima on the 2019 video game Death Stranding ,where he portrayed the role of the main protagonist.

Not to mention that Reedus has the perfect hair that a character like Knull would need to depict terror. However, as much as we could hype up the theory, it remains a rumor in the end.

So far, there have only been speculations as nothing can be confirmed or denied at this point. The only thing confirmed is that Tom Hardy’s Venom: The Last Dance will probably be Tom Hardy’s final film as Venom/Eddie Brock.
