Are Spider-Man & Doc Ock Working Together in No Way Home?

Are
Doc
Ock
and
Spider-Man
allies
in

Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home?
Thanks
to
the
most
recent

Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
trailer
we
now
have
a
much
better
idea
of
the
movie’s
plot,
with
the
footage
offering
several
intriguing
clues
regarding
the
relationship
between
Alfred
Molina’s
returning
villain,
Doctor
Octopus,
and
Tom
Holland’s
Peter
Parker.
While
the
new
footage
offers
a
further
look
at
Doc
Ock’s
entrance
into
the
MCU,
something
which
we
glimpsed
in
the
first
trailer,
trailer
#2
expands
on
this,
even
hinting
that
the
iconic
villain
and
the
Marvel
hero
will
join
forces
to
take
on
a
surprising
common
enemy…Doctor
Strange.

The
newest



Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
trailer
has
provided
a
much
more
detailed
look
at
the
movie,
including
many
of
the
previously
mysterious
motivations,
and
clearly
shows
that
Alfred
Molina’s
Doctor
Octopus
does
not
recognise
Tom
Holland’s
Peter
Parker.
While
the
two
still
seemingly
exchange
blows,
the
not-so-good
Doctor
is
later
shown
imprisoned,
and
seems
oddly
calm,
which
could
suggest
that
he
will
be
more
concerned
with
working
out
what
exactly
is
going
on,
rather
than
fighting
with
a
Spider-Man
he
does
not
even
know.

As
we
already
know,Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
finds

Peter
Parker
asking
Doctor
Strange
to
help
make
his
identity
as
Spider-Man
a
secret
following
its
public
revelation,
which
leads
to
the
madness
of
the
multiverse
being
unleashed.
This
has,
rather
understandably,
irked
The
Sorcerer
Supreme,
particularly
when
many
of
the
villains
who
have
returned
should
be
dead
and
are
thus
destined
to
die
at
the
hands
of
Spider-Man.
As
shown
in
the
trailer,
this
is
something
that
Holland’s
Peter
Parker
strongly
disagrees
with,
and
could
very
well
lead
to
the
web-slinger
and
Doc
Ock
teaming
up
in
order
to
stop
Doctor
Strange
from
sending
the
various
characters
to
their
doom.

A
feud
between
Spider-Man
and



Doctor
Strange
tracks
with
how
Tom
Holland
described
the
relationship
between
the
two
Avengers
recently,
with
the
actor
saying, “It’s
a
very
different
relationship
[from
Tony
Stark
and
Peter
Parker].
I
wouldn’t
consider
Doctor
Strange
as
a
mentor
in
this
film
–
it’s
more
as
a
colleague.
At
this
point
in
the
films,
Spider-Man
has
established
himself
as
quite
a
powerful
and
serious
Avenger.
Doctor
Strange
sees
that
in
him,
and
treats
him
like
an
equal.”
Unfortunately,
this
collegial
bond
will
not
last,
with
Holland
adding
that “throughout
the
course
of
the
film,
their
relationship
breaks
down.
And
rather
than
becoming
colleagues
–
they
don’t
become
enemies,
but
they’re
definitely
not
friends.”

While



Tom
Holland
does
not
go
so
far
as
to
call
them
enemies,
there
are
several
instances
of
Parker
and
Strange
coming
to
blows,
once
aboard
a
train
and
again
when
Parker
steals
a
mysterious
box
stamped
with
the
Seal
of
the
Vishanti,
which
protects
the
Sanctum
from
most
supernatural
invaders.

Whatever
happens,
and
in
spite
of
all
the
ongoing
rumors,

Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
looks
to
be

full
of
crowd-pleasing
surprises
as
the
madness
of
the
multiverse
crashes
into
the
MCU.

Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home
is
scheduled
to
be
released
in
the
United
States
on
December
17,
2021,
as
part
of
Phase
Four
of
the
MCU.
