Doctor Octopus' Arc Reactor Ending Pays Off A Cut Iron Man Crossover
The Alfred Molina iteration of Doctor Octopus returns in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and his heartwarming ending is a surprising payoff to a planned appearance in 2008’s Iron Man. Although Marvel Studios, the in-house film division of Marvel Comics, didn’t have the film right to all of its characters when initiating the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Otto Octavius of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man universe was, at one point, going to appear in Iron Man, tying the franchises together. While this plan, unfortunately, didn’t end up in the final film, Doc Ock’s new ending in No Way Home is a (perhaps unintentional) homage to it.
