Theorizing About Spider-Man: No Way Home and What We Can Expect

As the holiday season approaches, anticipation is building for the highly awaited Spider-Man: No Way Home. Here, we delve into various theories and predictions around the movie, grounded in its trailers and the rich context of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

The Green Goblin's Role and Aunt May

One of the intriguing theories is the potential involvement of the Green Goblin in the film. It has been suggested that the Green Goblin will be posing as a homeless person and infiltrating the Feast Shelter, which we see in the trailer with Peter Parker trying to catch a goblin bomb.

Dissecting the Green Goblin's Motivation

The Green Goblin, known for his brutal nature, is likely to use a similar strategy to that seen in the Sam Raimi films. Initially, he targets Peter's loved ones to instigate his own pain. So, the theory that Aunt May might die in this film seems plausible due to the Goblin's desire to hurt Peter through this means. If Aunt May is seen at the Feast Shelter, it increases the likelihood of this happening.

Identity Theme and Spider-Man's Arc

The trailer hints at an identity theme, with Dr. Strange advising Peter about the dangers of keeping a secret identity. This theory delves into the concept of whether it's a good idea to live a double life, a significant departure from previous superhero films.

Spider-Man's Character Development

Spider-Man has undergone significant character development in previous movies. In Homecoming, he learned to be an independent superhero without a special suit. In Far From Home, he learned to be his own superhero. For No Way Home, it's predicted that he will explore his own identity as a superhero.

Dr. Strange and Timelines

There's a strong theory that Dr. Strange will split timelines, based on the post-credit scene in Venom 2. In one comic episode, Dr. Strange was shown splitting timelines, which could align with the narrative of a multiverse in the MCU. This would imply that the merged timelines from both the MCU and Sony's Spider-Man worlds.

Implied Connection Between Universes

The timelines of the MCU and the Sony Spider-Man universe are expected to merge after the spell gone wrong. This suggests that Venom might have been part of the Marvel Universe all along, and the Sinister Six might appear in the film.

Sinister Six in the Big Screen

The Sinister Six, a popular supervillain team from the comics, could be an exciting addition to the MCU. The Vulture and Mysterio are already established in the MCU, and there's a possibility of Doc Ock and the Green Goblin making an appearance. Additionally, Tom Hardy's Venom is likely to be a significant presence in the film.

Tom Hardy's Venom

Tom Hardy, as Venom, could play a pivotal role in the film, given the multiverse connection and the Sony/Marvel deal. His presence adds layers of complexity to the narrative, blending the worlds of Spider-Man and Venom.

Wrap-Up of Theories and Predictions

Based on the theories and predictions discussed, Spider-Man: No Way Home is set to be a thematic and visually stunning film. While these theories are speculative, they highlight potential exciting elements that could enrich the narrative. Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the trailers to form your own theories and excitement as we get closer to Christmas.

Let's be eager for what the film holds, and until then, happy holidays!
