The MCU dispatches a wave of villains from different timelines and also welcomes back some known entities
The official trailer for “Spider-Man: No Way Home” is here and after over a year of fans desperately trying to speculate the ultimate plot twists, the video clip confirms that viewers will get a multiverse-ial one.
Tom Holland is back as Peter Parker and Spider-Man. In the final moments of the most recent Spider-Man sequel “Far from Home“, Peter Parker’s identity is exposed. In “No Way Home” Parker is now fully unmasked, no longer able to separate his normal life from being a super hero, spinning his world into some serious chaos.
Peter attempts to find a solution to being exposed by asking Doctor Strange for a spell to reverse and set things back to how they used to be, but instead, the magic plunges the two into the multiverse.
Holland is joined by Zendaya as Mary Jane, Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds and Marisa Tomei as Peter’s Aunt.
Villains from previous Spider-man franchises that we currently know of are Doctor Octopus (played by Alfred Molina), Electro (Jamie Fox) and the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe).
Twists, turns and easter eggs…
There was even some rumors that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield could make a return for some sort of weird cross-universe encounter, but that is pretty unlikely (or is it?!).
Fans even have gone so far as to attempt to analyze each individual frame in the trailer, with some thinking that they saw Daredevil character Charlie Cox (arm!) hidden in the proverbial weeds (frames), although this is still very unconfirmed.
Only time will tell, when fans watch “Spider-Man: No Way Home” which is currently scheduled for theatrical release (only!) this winter, December 17, 2021.
