Sources connected to Sony Studios told Heroic Hollywood that Sony Vice President of Creative Affairs Karen Moy recently purchased a copy of "Kraven's Last Hunt" comics on Amazon, which is reported to be a source material for the upcoming "Spider-Man" film. As Spider-Man's ultimate villains, it is assumed that the studio is eyeing on Kraven as the web-slinger's anti-hero in Watt's film.

Tom Holland is playing the role of the web-slinger. Watts is set to helm the film while John Francis Dailey and Jonathan M. Goldstein are on board to write the screenplay.
