With Henry Cavill’s departure from DC, new opportunities and potential avenues emerge, particularly within Marvel. Fans have long yearned for the actor’s presence in the cinematic universe. Now, as the timing appears suitable, the question still lingers, will he seize the chance and join the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Though it might seem a stretch, if Henry Cavill were to make the leap to the MCU, fans already have a role in mind. Recent fan art by Tronak_edits on the Marvel Studios subreddit further solidifies why he would be an ideal fit for the character of Knull.

Not solely based on the character’s appearance and demeanor, but also considering his legacy as one of the most renowned anti-heroes in the universe. And according to many, this might be the fresh breath of air Cavill needs after playing a superhero for so many years.

Who Is Knull and How Can He Spice Things Up in The MCU?

To go into the very basics of the comic world, Knull lies at the core of all symbiote tales sprinkled throughout Marvel. Linked to the vast expanse of cosmic shadows an abyss referred to as the Void in the comics always seems to follow him, this deity embodies a form of primordial darkness within the universe.

He possesses extraordinary abilities to generate and command symbiote armies, hence the name God of Symbiotes, including their monstrous forms like the Grendel dragon, and also can shapeshift as well among various other things. Some might say he is as strong as Hulk and as dangerous as Venom, making him one of Marvel’s mightiest alien villains of all time.

In addition to all this, Knull almost defeated Venom in a comic battle. Introducing Knull to the MCU could open up some seriously thrilling narrative possibilities, enriching the universe and intensifying the stakes. Fans seem to have already thrown their support behind their preferred candidate for the role. This could indeed mark the beginning of something truly epic.
