WILLEM DAFOE RETURNING AS NORMAN OSBORN?
It seems like everyday there is a new rumor or leak about the upcoming Tom Holland Spider-Man 3 film. From Jamie Foxx returning to the role of Electro to the possibility and seemingly unofficially confirmed return of both Andrew Garfield and Toby Maguire. Spidey fans have A LOT a good bit to chew on before the movie is released.
Rumorverse
A few months back Small Screen reported that Norman Osborn (aka Green Goblin) would be making his MCU debut in the highly anticipated Spider-Man adventure. According to their report an Oscorp experiment is what will lead Peter and apparently Doctor Stephen Strange into the Multiverse which is how these rumored, and confirmed, appearances of former Spidey characters are set to appear.
Unfortunately, we still have yet to hear much officially on the Norman Osborn casting and this is for good reason. I’ve been told that Willem Dafoe will be returning to the role which he held in 2002’s Spider-Man once again portraying Norman Osborn/ Green Goblin. Of course the size of the role as well as the impact he will have on the MCU is still unknown but it is speculated that Osborn and his company Oscorp will play a larger role in this phase of the Cinematic Universe.
Adding Willem Dafoe to the list of cameos and cast list seems to bloat this movie even more. At the bottom of the article you will find a list of rumored and confirmed actors which we may see.
Finally, Some exciting information dropped this week.
Apparently Andrew Garfield is in Atlanta Georgia which happens to be where Spider-Man 3 is currently being shot. This information comes from his Twitter account which shows his location seen in the picture below.
