Spider-Man: No Way Home is easily one of the most anticipated movies that is set to release in 2022. While Eternals is Marvel’s next movie that is coming out, the fourth instalment in the Spider-Man movies starring Tom Holland is the most awaited.
Tom Holland, who will be reprising his role as the friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man, has opened up about working with Alfred Molina, who will be returning as Doc Ock in the movie.
“[Molina is] one of my favorite people I've ever worked with.”, said Holland in a recent conversation with EW. “It was really fun to watch him see how technology has advanced. When he was making these films, the arms were puppets, and when we did it, they're all imaginary and CG.” said the actor.
He also said that it was “cool” to see Molina relive his previous experience and also relearn it.
Spider-Man: No Way Home picks up where the previous movie left out, where J. Jonah Jameson (J.K. Simmons) has revealed Spider-Man’s identity to the world.
The movie will see Peter seek help from Doctor Strange, who will conjure up a spell to solve the situation at hand, only to open a multiversal portal.
The trailer for the movie which released in August revealed that the wall-crawler will be facing off with Molina’s Doc Ock, a role he did in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2.
