Is that really Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin in Spider-Man: No Way Home's trailer? Sony and Marvel revealed the long-awaited first footage of the third Spider-Man film set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Following up on the public reveal of Peter Parker's (Tom Holland) secret identity in Spider-Man: Far From Home, the young web-slinger seeks help for his dilemma from Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch). But the duo inadvertently unleashes the Multiverse, which means characters from Sony's prior Spider-Man movies start appearing - which apparently includes the return of the Green Goblin.
For many fans, the original 2002 Spider-Man directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire is the best one, and much of that can be attributed to Willem Dafoe's iconic turn as Norman Osborn. Dafoe was perfectly cast as the villainous Green Goblin; Osborn was a billionaire industrialist who experimented on himself and gained superpowers as his mind was twisted. The Goblin discovered Peter Parker was Spider-Man during the course of the film; Osborn attacked Aunt May (Rosemary Harris) and he kidnapped Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst) and threw her off the Queensboro Bridge. The Goblin inadvertently killed himself in his final battle with Spider-Man, and his death drove a wedge between Peter and Norman's son Harry (James Franco) that led to the younger Osborn becoming the New Goblin in Spider-Man 3.
The Green Goblin doesn't physically appear in Spider-Man: No Way Home's trailer but that is, indeed, Willem Dafoe's villain. Dafoe's iconic laugh as the Goblin is heard during an attack on the George Washington Bridge as he hurls one of his signature orange and green pumpkin bombs at the cars on the road and ominously says, "Be careful what you wish for, Parker!" in voice-over. Sony and Marvel haven't officially announced Willem Dafoe is in Spider-Man: No Way Home in order to preserve the film's myriad secrets, but Dafoe was reportedly spotted on the set and the Green Goblin is even rumored to be the film's main villain, along with Alfred Molina's Doc Ock from Spider-Man 2 (who appears in the trailer) and Jamie Foxx's Electro from The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
As Spider-Man's first movie villain, the Green Goblin is inarguably an iconic presence in No Way Home and his return opens up a ton of exciting possibilities. The first question is how he can be alive since Norman clearly died in Spider-Man 2002? It's possible Tom Holland's Peter and Doctor Strange enter the Multiverse at an early point in Spider-Man 2002 or that meddling with the timelines somehow resurrected the Goblin or prevented him from dying in the first place. Mucking with the Multiverse may even have changed the events of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movies, and the original Spider-Man movie actor Tobey Maguire, along with The Amazing Spider-Man's Andrew Garfield, is also rumored to appear in No Way Home.
Not immediately showing the Goblin could also mean he will look different in Spider-Man: No Way Home due to alternations in the Multiverse. While fans loved Willem Dafoe's performance as Norman Osborn in Spider-Man 2002, the Green Goblin costume and mask were always controversial for making him look like an action figure. It's possible No Way Home will take the opportunity to update the Goblin's attire to be more comic-book accurate and allow Dafoe's villainous facial features to shine through. Superhero movie costumes have greatly evolved in the 19 years since Spider-Man and the Green Goblin would certainly benefit from a better look.
Along with Green Goblin being a huge problem for Holland's Spidey, the fact that Osborn attacks yet another famous New York City bridge in Spider-Man: No Way Home's trailer could also be a clue that, this time, it's Michelle "MJ" Jones (Zendaya) who the Goblin abducts and hurls off a bridge. Could Spider-Man: No Way Home be the film where Tom Holland's Peter Parker finally suffers an unimaginable tragedy that scars him emotionally as a hero, like Uncle Ben's death did for Maguire and Gwen Stacy's (Emma Stone) death did for Garfield? Whatever happens, Willem Dafoe's return as the Green Goblin in Spider-Man: No Way Home is a very big deal and Sony is wise to keep the supervillain under wraps until the film premieres in December.
