As revealed by some recently released concept art, Kraven the Hunter was originally intended to have a scene that would have connected the film to the Venom movies. Kraven the Hunter, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the titular role, opened in theatres in December 2024 but mostly garnered negative reviews and was a box office dud. […]

Avengers: Doomsday, the fifth Avengers film from Marvel Studios, and the first of a two-part arc culminating in Secret Wars, starts shooting in the spring for a May 2026 release date.

The portals scene was reworked in post-production (along with, famously, Robert Downey Jr'.s 'I Am Iron Man' one-liner) and the rest is history – even if Endgame writer Stephen McFeely freely admitted, "I thought the first cut worked pretty well."
