Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin has a recent new universe to terrorize, and a recent new outfit to terrorize it in. On Thursday, November 25 — simply in time for us to provide some critical thanks — Sony dropped a model new “Spider-Man: No Way Home” poster that confirms Dafoe’s costume for the upcoming film.
An worldwide Twitter account for Sony debuted what they known as the “latest visible” for the undertaking, which is stylized very like a conventional blockbuster poster with Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange as massive busts positioned heart on the picture. The group is surrounded by Doc Ock’s mechanical arms — and simply above Strange’s head, we will see a small Green Goblin hovering on his board, hooded and cloaked.
That being mentioned, while you zoom in it is very apparent that the actual Green Goblin in query is certainly the unique incarnation of the character, famously performed by Willem Dafoe. The “Spider-Man: No Way Home” poster launched earlier this month additionally gave followers a glimpse at Green Goblin — nevertheless it was actually simply that, a glimpse. The character was an apparent addition to the visible, however was manner too distant and out of focus to verify whether or not it was Dafoe, or later incarnations of the character, like Dane DeHaan’s flip in “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” and even James Franco’s Harry Osborne (who took his father’s place because the Green Goblin within the Sam Raimi trilogy).
I’m ridiculously excited to have Dafoe again within the fold as Green Goblin. In my eyes, he’s the unique and the very best to tackle the character — and I say this as somebody who fiercely loves DeHaan as nicely — so it makes probably the most sense to have him concerned. I would not thoughts seeing DeHaan, too, but when we solely get one Goblin, I’m glad it is Dafoe.
