Alfred Molina reprises his role as Doctor Octopus, or ``Doc Ock,'' as the cast of the upcoming Marvel Spider-Man movie grows, in a move that is sure to make fans' cybernetically augmented tentacles tremble. Doc Ock was the main antagonist of 2's Spider-Man 2004 and is widely considered to be the culmination of Sam Raimi's trilogy, before the bloated pile of villains that appeared in the trilogy's conclusion.

But it looks like the next MCU Spider-Man movie is set to draw inspiration - and cast members - from many previous Spidey movies. We expect Jamie Foxx to reprise the role of Electro from The Amazing Spider-Man 2, while Benedict Cumberbatch will appear as Doctor Strange, suggesting that different iterations of Spidey's villains could have something to do with the upcoming multiverse of madness. of Dr. Strange. Marvel movie 2022. There are certainly a growing number of doctors attached to Spider-Man 3, who we know will have the word "home" in the title, similar to Homecoming and Far From Home.

Marvel and Sony continue to pitch movie projects, with a Spider-Verse sequel slated for a late 2022 release, along with the Venom 2, Morbius, and Madame Webb movies all in the works. In the gaming world, there's been some controversy over Spider-Man's exclusive availability in Marvel's Avengers, but the web-slinging fun of Spider-Man: Miles Morales on the newly released PS5 is enough to make us happy. via variety
