Alfred Molina breaks silence on returning as Doc Ock in Spider-Man: No Way Home
In 2004, Alfred Molina first took on the role of Otto Octavius in Sam Raimi’s
Spider-Man 2, and now, the actor is set to return as his version of the iconic villain in the third Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man instalment,
Spider-Man: No Way Home.
During an interview with Variety, Molina broke silence on his return as Doc Ock in which he stated that he was “under orders not to talk about it” while shooting but later described himself as “the worst kept secret in Hollywood.”
“It was wonderful. It was very interesting going back after 17 years to play the same role, given that in the intervening years, I now have two chins, a wattle, crow’s feet and a slightly dodgy lower back,” Molina said.
