10 Insane Rumours For Upcoming Superhero Movies

10. Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin Is The Main Villain - Spider-Man: No Way Home

Spider-Man: No Way Home is by far the most anticipated superhero movie currently due for release this year, because if the scuttlebutt is true, it's basically going to be a live-action Spider-Verse film.

It's already been confirmed that Alfred Molina and Jamie Foxx will be returning to play Doctor Octopus and Electro from the Sam Raimi and Marc Webb Spider-Man franchises, and it's also heavily rumoured that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will appear as their respective alt-universe iterations of the web-slinger himself.

But surely the most insane and exciting rumour of all? That Willem Dafoe will be reprising the role of Norman Osborn aka the Green Goblin in the film, and better yet, will be No Way Home's primary antagonist.

Reports of dubious authenticity have claimed that Dafoe was spotted on the film's set, but without any pictorial evidence of his presence and the actor keeping understandably quiet about the part, it remains entirely unconfirmed for now.

Yet given the film's clear desire to tie all three Spider-Man continuities together, it sure would make sense for one of its most acclaimed villains to make an appearance.

Needless to say, the fan service would be off the charts if we get to see Dafoe mugging around like a madman almost 20 years after he did it so brilliantly in Raimi's original Spider-Man.

How Likely Is It?: This honestly sounds pretty damn credible, so we'll go with it being absolutely true until proven otherwise.
