7 Dead Movie Characters Returning Soon
2. Electro
The superhero genre is one that obviously lends itself extremely well to characters being brought back from their supposed graves. And one such 'deceased' character who's soon to resurface, is Jamie Foxx's Max Dillon.
Dillon, aka Electro, was the main villain of Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 back in 2014. That movie was such a frustrating beast, with the picture often losing sight of itself as it instead spent more time focussing on world-building and sowing seeds for The Amazing Spider-Man 3, The Amazing Spider-Man 4, The Sinister Six, and Venom - three of those movies being cancelled after the poor response to TASM2.
Regardless of the lacklustre final product, that second outing for Andrew Garfield's Wall-crawler did see Jamie Foxx on fine form as Electro. That fine form didn't fare all that well for the rogue, mind, for he'd end up being killed off after absorbing too much power courtesy of Spidey and Gwen Stacy.
Just last month, though, Foxx confirmed that he'll be returning as Electro for December 2021's to-be-titled follow-up to Spider-Man: Far From Home. It appears that Doctor Strange and the concept of the multiverse is the reason for the electricity-fuelled rogue jumping from the realm of Garfield's Spider-Man to the world of Tom Holland's Web-head, although the multiverse ideal offers up so many possibilities as to how we'll see Max Dillon once more.
