The symbiote saga enters its darkest chapter yet. Venom 4: Rise of Knull unveils its first official trailer, plunging fans into a chilling, visually stunning battle between Earth’s most unorthodox anti-hero and the godlike entity that created the symbiotes.

🔥 Trailer Highlights
- A World on the Brink
The trailer opens with stark images of global chaos—meteor showers, collapsing cities, and tendrils of darkness seeping through the skies. A narrator intones: “Before the light… there was the void.”
These opening moments set the tone for a battle far beyond anything the franchise has tackled before. - Enter Knull
The mysterious, godlike villain Knull is finally revealed in eerie glimpses—pale-skinned, towering, and armed with the All-Black Necrosword. His presence exudes menace, his goal clear: “I will reclaim what was mine.”
With glowing red eyes and a voice like thunder, Knull threatens to erase the balance between light and dark. - Eddie’s Breaking Point
Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock is pushed to his limits. Haunted by nightmares, hunted by science and myth, he struggles to control Venom as the symbiote becomes increasingly unstable. “We’re not strong enough,” Eddie confesses, while Venom growls: “Then we become more.” - Symbiote War
The action crescendos with a global symbiote invasion. Familiar faces return, including Detective Mulligan (hinted to evolve into Toxin), as well as rogue symbiotes drawn to Knull’s command. One massive battle sequence features Venom leaping from a collapsing skyscraper, grappling with a colossal, dragon-like beast made of living black matter.
🌌 The Cosmic Threat Expands
This fourth installment breaks new ground by diving headfirst into cosmic horror. Drawing inspiration from the acclaimed “King in Black” Marvel comic arc, Venom 4 expands the lore of the symbiote universe, blending mythology with science fiction.
With Earth caught in the crossfire between alien gods and ancient forces, the movie elevates Venom from street-level menace to interstellar warrior. The stakes have never been higher.
🎼 Tone, Score & Style
The visual palette is darker and more stylized, with deep shadows and glowing symbiote forms dominating the screen. The score—echoing a mix of orchestral menace and pulsating industrial tones—builds the tension masterfully, drawing viewers deeper into the abyss.
