ALFRED MOLINA SPIDER MAN MOVIE

ALFRED MOLINA SPIDER MAN MOVIE

So heading into No Way Home, a movie we already know so much and so little about, I just want to keep getting these very misleading and confusing little tidbits of information about it and nothing set in stone, even if we all think we know for sure that we’ll see Maguire and Garfield. (But that’s maybe just because I know the comic villain? Either way, I still wish I was surprised.) My only problem with Far From Home was that I knew we couldn’t trust Mysterio, so I almost wish I had no idea who Jake Gyllenhaal was even playing. So has Molina, in his wisdom, just confirmed that we’re going to see both Maguire and Andrew Garfield in No Way Home? Honestly, I’m happy just having little things like this to keep me guessing so I don’t really know what we’re getting until I’m sitting in the movie theater. Right? Like, how else are we following up with Otto Octavius right after his storyline in Spider-Man 2 unless we’re going to see Tobey Maguire’s New York and Otto? Unless there is some timey-wimey stuff and villains like Doc Ock and Jamie Foxx’s Electro end up in the main MCU timeline just on happenstance, there isn’t really a way to revisit his Otto unless we go into different timelines. (The exception to this rule is Kathryn Hahn’s Olivia Octavius in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.) So when Molina revealed to Variety that he was coming back to the role and it picks up where his character left off in Spider-Man 2, I just … had a lot of thoughts.įirst of all, this basically confirms a multiverse.

Now, you may recall in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2, Molina brought Doc Ock to life and we all collectively agreed that no one could play Otto like he could. Talking with Variety, Molina said that he had a conversation with director Jon Watts who told him that “In this universe, no one really dies,” as to why Otto Octavius is back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But my Spider-Man-loving brain instantly went to work. Alfred Molina is just out here spoiling Spider-Man: No Way Homeand fans thought it was absolutely hilarious.
