As of May 2025, there is no official confirmation or release of a film titled Venom 4: King in Black. While fan-made trailers and speculative content have circulated online, these are unofficial creations and not associated with Sony Pictures or Marvel Studios.

🎬 Direction & Visuals (Expected Style)

A King in Black adaptation would need massive visual upgrades:

• Interstellar scenes, blackened skies, and armies of symbiote dragons

• A terrifying and regal design for Knull—pale, eldritch, and ancient

• Larger-scale battles than anything seen in Venom: Let There Be Carnage

The film could benefit from a darker tone and more horror-focused direction, similar to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but with symbiotes.

✅ What Could Make It Great

• Faithful adaptation of King in Black (the 2020 comic storyline)

• Expanding the lore of the symbiotes beyond Earth

• Elevating Venom from solo antihero to cosmic protector

• Deep emotional stakes, especially if Eddie is forced to sacrifice himself or the symbiote for the greater good

❌ What Could Go Wrong

• Overcrowding the plot with too many characters or cameos

• Poor CGI or underwhelming visual scale

• A rushed script that glosses over Knull’s complexity

• Making it too dark without balancing it with the humor and heart of previous Venom films

🔚 Final Speculative Verdict:

If done right:
⭐ 8.5/10 – A bold, horror-infused space epic that brings Venom full circle from antihero to mythic defender.

If done poorly:
⭐ 5/10 – A messy, CGI-heavy misfire that loses the grounded charm of the earlier films.
