TheMarvel Cinematic Universe ’s first three phase angle , collectively known as the Infinity Saga , have follow to an end , but this universe continues its expansion with new characters , stories , and effect . The focus of the Infinity Saga was Thanos ’ pursuit for the Infinity Stones to wipe out one-half of spirit in the universe , but Phase 4 of the MCU is focusing on novel , more complex concepts , as is the multiverse , which will unleash a variety of problems for the current Italian sandwich of the MCU .

The first trailer forSpider - Man : No means Homeconfirmed the master nidus of the story will be the multiverse and the consequences of messing with it , as well as the show of Doc Ock and Electro , though only the former made a right appearance . The house trailer also suggest at the comer ofother villains from previous Spider - Man movies , most notably the Green Goblin , with the show of his signature weapon system , the pumpkin bombs , and his patent laugh in the background . fan are hope this will be the return of Willem Dafoe ’s Green Goblin from Sam Raimi’sSpider - Mantrilogy , but this could really be one of Marvel ’s tricks to misdirect the audience , and rather of the Green Goblin , viewers will receive the Hobgoblin , an indistinguishability taken by Ned Leeds in the comics .
The Hobgoblin is a supervillain who is often depicted as an foe of Spider - Man . The first Hobgoblin , Roderick Kingsley , altered Norman Osborn ’s Goblin formula and made some adjustment to the costume and equipment of the Green Goblin to turn them into those of his own vicious persona . Roderick brainwash Ned Leeds after the latter followed him to a hideout and used him as a whipping boy in case he was unmasked , and he used Ned as a rack - in on many social occasion . Among the equipment used by the Hobgoblin are the pumpkin bombs , just like the Green Goblin , and with Ned ( Jacob Batalon ) already part of the MCU ( though as Peter ’s best friend),the pumpkin bomb seen in theSpider - Man : No Way Hometrailercould be those of the Hobgoblin alternatively of the Green Goblin .
Ned ’s transmutation into the Hobgoblin is one of those moments MCU fans are waiting to see , and it has already been teased insome of the marketing forNo Way Home , so the Green Goblin ’s moment in the poke might descend with the bountiful spin of Ned becoming the Hobgoblin . As to why Ned would cease up as a villain , Spider - Man : No Way Homecould either be the example of the source material and have one of the baddie brainwashing him or this could bea multiverse version of the Hobgoblin , which would excuse the appearance of the bomb in what looks like the same scene / struggle as the one where Doc Ock appear . TheSpider - Man : No Way Hometrailer answer many interrogation about this forthcoming dangerous undertaking but also left many more , mostly about the villains that Peter will have to face .
