The last movie of Spider-Man: no way home features an outstanding cast that combines the best of all three generations of Spider-Man in movie history. Among the most outstanding actors, is Alfred Molina, who after 16 years returned to play the villain Doctor Octopus.
A failed spell performed by Doctor Strange brought back all those who know Peter Parker in Spider-Man. In that sense, Otto Octavius came back from the dead to fight the arachnid superhero, although this time the ‘Wall-crawler’ looks different from the young man he knew.

Alfred Molina’s fear during No way home
In an interview with FilmIsNow, the British actor explained: “What I thought was wonderful about the second film in the first trilogy was that they gave Doc Ock that wonderful moment of redemption. And like all great villains in the Marvel universe, he became a villain reluctantly or almost by accident. ” Added: “I felt that when Jon watts he described what would be the first appearance of Octopus in Spider-Man: no way home, he knew it would be a moment of wonder. “
He then revealed what was his biggest insecurity when it came to playing one of the sinister six again: “I wanted to make sure I was in the right place in terms of acting, so it was helpful to go back and watch Spider-Man 2.”
Molina concluded: “At the same time, he is a different director, a different film, he has another freshness. I didn’t want to go back and replicate what we had done before. For me it was important to arrive as if this were the first time ”.
