The Kraven The Hunter movie trailer raises the question of whether the Sony movie star is using a DC supervillain's backstory as his own.
Sony's Kraven The Hunter trailer has prompted questioning regarding whether the character has stolen a DC supervillain backstory. The release of the new Kraven The Hunter trailer has naturally prompted a lot of online discussion, both because it's Sony's newest live-action superhero movie since the infamous Morbius, and because Sergei Dimitri Symostivych Kravinoff is a larger than life figure who is inherently interesting to see being adapted into a live-action format.

The film seemingly entirely changes Kravinoff's backstory, replacing it with a streamlined modern take for cinema audiences.
Kraven The Hunter's New Sony Backstory Mirrors A DC Supervillain Many reactions to Sony's Kraven The Hunter trailer compared his new backstory to that of DC supervillain Catman's backstory - including Gail Simone, who popularized the character in the modern day when writing the Secret Six comics.
Why Sony Changed Kraven The Hunter's Comic Backstory In the comics, Kraven the Hunter is born many years before the timeline that appears to be set out for his Sony movie counterpart, instead growing up during the Russian Revolution, and gaining his superpowers after drinking a potion made by Marvel Comics' Calypso on one of his hunting excursions. As such, it makes sense for the live-action Kraven the Hunter changes to involve altering the character's backstory, for several reasons.
Similarly, changing how Kraven became a hunter and also how he gained his powers makes sense as a form of simplifying the plot down and avoiding having to introduce and explain Calypso's own lore.
