The Adversary. One of the main Characters in the destruction of Earth, God,and man, and no limelight? you blow Aronofsky, at least get your sh*t straight you dolt.
shareIf he's only doing Old Testament, technically there was no Satan character yet. Lucifer and Satan is all New Testament.
shareArronofsky was under no obligation to be slavishly faithful to the biblical texts he was borrowing from. There is a clear villain in the story and no need for Satan. The villain is humanity.
sharetrue, humanity is by far that villain. it seemed odd that he did not include the mastermind behind that inhumanity since he's used the Bible. Especially the character that's responsible for this destruction through "the fall".,which was the serpent, the beast, aka Lucifer/Devil, to most through interpretation.
I also believe he used the new testament as well. If you're going to use characters in a book at least include the main one. as frogorama mention i may understand why.

Satan is not a major character in the NT. That would be Jesus, who does indeed make a brief appearance in the movie.
