So who is the villain Knull in Venom 3: The Last Dance? What are Knull’s powers and abilities in the movie? Here are your answers.

Who is Knull in Venom 3: The Last Dance?

Knull is Venom’s creator in Venom 3: The Last Dance.

As mentioned in Venom 3: The Last Dance’s official trailer, Knull has sent down multiple symbiote creatures to Earth to track down Venom, who along with some of his symbiote brethren had escaped their home planet during the events of the first Venom movie. Venom also reveals to Eddie that the reason Knull has sent the creatures after them is because he wants something from him.

What are Knull’s powers and abilities in Venom 3: The Last Dance?

Not much is known about Knull’s powers and abilities in Venom 3: The Last Dance as the trailer did not showcase any of it, aside from just one glimpse of the character.

In the comics, Knull is a divine being with near immortality due to his status as a primordial god of darkness. Due to this, he possesses godly strength, speed, durability, and combat abilities. He can also sustain himself without food or drink and possesses shapeshifting, flight, temporal manipulation, regenerative healing factor, and dark energy manipulation.

Knull also created the All Black, the first symbiote which he wielded as a black-red sword made of living abyss. This was a precursor to necro swords fashioned by Gorr, All-Father Thor, and Galactus. This sword is powerful enough to slay divine beings.

Knull’s primary ability is Living Abyss Manipulation. Through this, he can forge eldritch darkness — a manifestation of the primordial void that had existed long before the birth of the universe. This ability also ties into his capabilities of symbiote creation and domination, which he uses to create and control symbiotes, influencing them to act on his will.
