Spider-Man: No Way Home
The trailers for the next MCU movie , Spider - Man : No Way Homehave confirmed the return of several Spider - Man scoundrel , include the disarray reveal of Alfred Molina ’s Doctor Octopus as a villain . That seems a unknown twist , considering Molina ’s magnetic , tragic villain terminate Sam Raimi’sSpider - Man 2seemingly redeemed in his death . But it seems that Doctor Strange ’s fudged memory spell leads to Doc Ock arriving in the MCU with his malevolent mechanically skillful arms still heave his nous to evil , and it ’s an important part of setting up Tom Holland ’s own salvation as the MCU ’s Peter Parker .
Marvel and Molina have already revealed several details about Doc Ock ’s restoration . Doc Ock ’s story will supposedly pick up from the persona ’s evident death scene in 2004’sSpider - Man 2 . In the film , Doc Ock overcome the evil AI tentacles antecedently command him and destroy his dangerous fusion reactor experimentation in a river to save New York City . Additionally , Molina’sDoc Ock will appear de - elderly . SinceSpider - Man 2debuted 17 years ago , No fashion Homewill make Doc Ock come out immature to resemble Molina ’s look in the premature movie . Confusingly though , despite theNo style Hometrailers seemingly express Molina ’s character fight Jamie Foxx ’s Electro and seemingly working with Holland ’s Spider - Man , the other marketing also confirmed Doctor Octopus will fight Spider - Man .

So , despite the fact that Doc Ock redeems himself inSpider - Man 2 , taking controller away from the evil AI tentacles , his attempt to demolish Spider - Man ’s head clearly walks backSpider - Man 2 ’s ending . So why is he malign ? Well , the idea of redeemable villains is a deep vein throughout the MCU , from the likes of Loki , Scarlet Witch and Zemo , morality has always been shown as a spectrum . Curiously , the Spider - Man moving picture have been less considerate of the villain , even when showing the tragical side of their backstories : yes , Mysterio was something of a megalomaniac , but his career was ruined by Tony Stark , and while Vulture get away with a vaguely redemptive ending , his gang - all pressure into criminalism by poverty or unemployment - are mostly just considered traditional henchmen . Holland ’s Peter Parker seems to have a steady grip of what he considers to be ripe and what is untimely : and it will probably take Doctor Octopus ' second salvation to help him agnize he needs to be more forgiving . That would not only arrange up a surprisingNo Way Homeending whether MCU villains are n’t killed off quick ( as most are ) , but also could help Spider - Man reclaim his image as a hero and not the homicidal vigilante Mysterio painted him as .
AsNo Way Homeopens , the evil AI tentacle seem to have regained their hold on Doc Ock fromSpider - Man 2 , changing a good man into an vicious supervillain . In the film , it takes a considerable effort from Spider - Man ( Tobey Maguire ) and Doc Ock to sweep over the tentacles andNo Way Homehas now been put up as an chance to repeat that . Just as Maguire ’s hero turned Molina ’s Doctor Octopus aside from his nefarious misbehaviour to destroy his experiment and save the world , Holland ’s Peter Parker presumably faces the same struggle . And perforate his direction out of his bind is n’t going to cut it , which is precisely what Peter Parker involve , given the public perception of him after Spider - Man : Far From Home ’s mid - credits scene set him up as public enemy number one . After all , Doctor Strange ’s spell makes everyone forget the identicalness reveal , but it does n’t necessarily change the fact that Mysterio implicate him in his own slaying .
Of course , withNo Way Home’smarketing , nothing is as it seems and strangely there has already been a crowing hint that Doc Ock ’s villain turn does n’t last very long . And while him being ally with Peter Parker is an interesting moral force , bringing him back to play an outright grand graphic symbol would n’t quite have puzzle out , give Doctor Strange ’s explanation of why the baddie are contribute into the MCU . Beyond set up a huge spectacle at the remnant ofSpider - human : No Way Home , the idea of Spider - Man having to consciously think more about the potential repurchase of the " scoundrel " he ’s fight , rather than just vote out them - and turning the tide of how the MCU ’s public sees him -
