During last night’s Sony Pictures presentation, the first teaser trailer was shown to the crowd for Kraven the Hunter starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Surprisingly the film will be the first Spider-Man spin-off film to have a Hard-R rating instead of Venom or Morbius. The teaser also introduced Kraven fighting another Spider-Man villain, The Rhino.

The Hollywood Reporter was able to confirm that Alessandro Nivola (Many Saints of Newark) will play the character in the film. Paul Giamatti originally played a version of the Rhino in 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. However, that version was simply a mech-suit to be more grounded.

Kraven the Hunter hits theaters on October 6th
