“Spiderman: No Way Home”: Alfred Molina and the ‘unexpected’ reason why he was Octopus again

There are a few days until the premiere of the film “Spider-Man: No Way Home” and each news, photograph or statement of the protagonists increases the expectation in the followers. The last to speak of the film have been the villains of the film, especially the actor Alfred Molina, who will give life again to ‘Doctor Octopus’.

In a recent interview during a CCXP World 2021 panel, actors Willem Dafoe, Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina gathered to share details about their return as villains from “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”

When asked about his main reason for returning to the franchise, Dafoe and Foxx agreed that they were motivated by “the excitement of facing Spider-Man again.” For its part, Alfred Molina made a comment that surprised – and made everyone laugh.

“For me, it’s just about money (laughs). Interestingly, Willem and I were joking the other day about how 20 years since his first ‘Green Goblin’, 17 years after my ‘Otto’, these are the longest choices a studio has exercised on actors, it’s as if we had waiting status”, Molina said.

“To be honest, when the idea was first suggested, The first thing I thought was that: ‘I’m 17 years older, I have a chin, wrinkles, and well, you know what they are going to do’. Then he said, ‘Wait a minute, they have technology, this is not going to be a problem.’ It has been very nice, exciting ”added the actor.

As is known, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” will hit the national billboard on December 16, although it will have a preview the day before. The film is so highly anticipated that when the ticket sales were announced, the web pages of the cinema chains were saturated.
