There are a number of reasons for fans to be excited about the Venom movie, "Venom: The Last Dance." From what we understand, this will be Tom Hardy’s final appearance as Eddie Brock, and the alien symbiote that attached itself to him back in the initial Venom. And based on the recent trailer that dropped, "Venom: The Last Dance" is going to dig deeper into Venom’s alien origin, including a look at the symbiote’s creator, Knull. Well, after the appearance of Knull in the trailer, the character’s co-creator Donny Cates took to social media to voice his support, and his words have got me fired up for the villain’s treatment in the sequel.

Let’s use the comics to fill in some of the gaps. Knull is a god who created the symbiotes after the Celestials (introduced in Eternals in the MCU) invaded his kingdom. He shaped the first symbiote into a sword, which he used to decapitate a Celestial. Then he used that being’s head to increase his power, establish a dark void, and plug himself into the nexus of a Hive. Some of that was hinted at in the final trailer for "Venom: The Last Dance."
