Tom Holland Recalls Scary Run in with Willem Dafoe’s Goblin on Spider-Man: No Way Home Set

With
all
but
Alfred
Molina
and
Jamie
Foxx’s
appearances
in
the



Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
being
unconfirmed
until
the
arrival
of
the
latest
trailer,
it
must
have
been
killing
Tom
Holland
not
being
able
to
share
stories
about
the
stars
he
has
found
himself
working
with
in
what
seems
to
be
his

Marvel
Cinematic
Universe
swan
song
in
the
most
part.
However,
with
the
final
confirmation
that
Willem
Dafoe
is
back
in
the
franchise
as
the
Green
Goblin,
it
has
allowed
Holland
to
revealed
what
happened
when
he
met
the
star
of
the
original

Spider-Man
movie
from
2002.

During
the
Regal
Sherman
Oaks
event
to
launch
the
new
trailer
on
Wednesday,



Tom
Holland
told
those
in
attendance
that
due
to
the
extreme
levels
of
secrecy
around
the
appearance
of
certain
characters
in
the
movie,
he
managed
to
bump
into
Dafoe
without
knowing
it
was
him.

“There
was
actually
a
funny
story
about
when
I
met
Willem
for
the
first
time,
because
obviously
at
that
time
all
of
the
villains
in
the
film,
it
was
a
huge
secret
that
they
were
in
the
film,
so
they
would
walk
around
set
with
these
cloaks
on.
And,
naturally,
you
know,
these
guys
are
very
excited
to
be
coming
back
and
bringing
these
roles
back
to
life,
but
they
came
to
set
a
week
before
they
started
shooting
to
just
see
what
it
was
like,
meet
Jon,
meet
myself,
hang
out
on
set
and
have
a
good
time.
And
I
just
sort
of
bumped
into
this
guy
in
a
cloak
and
was
like, “Watch
out,
mate.”
And
he
took
his
hood
off
and
I
almost,
like,
got
really
scared.
I
was
like “oh
sh*t,
the

Goblin’s
here!”
But
he
was
lovely
he
was
really
wonderful
and
a
real
joy
to
work
with.”

Willem
Dafoe
is
just
one
of
the
villains
whose
presence
in
the
movie
has
been
hinted
at
for
months
but
was
only
confirmed
this
week,
with
the
character
appearing
in
a
newly
released
poster
along
with
the
hinted
return
of
Sandman,
the
Lizard
and
Electro
along
with
Doc
Ock
who
was
confirmed
months
ago
both
unofficially
and
then
in
the
first
trailer.
However,
fans
were
still
not
happy
that
they
didn’t
get
to
see
either
Tobey
Maguire
or
Andrew
Garfield
finally
be
confirmed
to
return
in
their
respective
Spider-Man
roles
from
other “universes”,
and
even
though
both
actors
have
outright
denied
their
involvement,
fans
have
quickly
discounted
this
as
Marvel
keeping
more
secrets.

In
fact,
the

new
Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
trailer
has
only
encouraged
the
certainty
that
both
actors
will
be
appearing
in
the
movie,
not
least
with
certain
parts
of
the
trailer
suggesting
that
some
editing
had
been
done
to
remove
their
characters
from
the
scenes,
with
one
scene
actually
still
having
the
arm
of
Andrew
Garfield
left
behind
when
the
rest
of
him
was
digitally
removed.

All
in
all,
it
is
now
just
a
month
until

Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
swings
into
cinemas
and
will
likely
claim
its
place
as
the
biggest
box
office
hit
of
the
year.
