Spider-Man: No Way Home was an immaculate experience for fans. It was surprising, and the hammer on the nail to lift Tom Holland to an engrossing height as Spider-Man. Also, remarkably, the nostalgia the movie created fascinated Marvel fans as the movie went on to receive immense accolades from both fans and critics.
With the surprising comeback of the previous Spider-Man actors Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield creating the union of the live-action Spider-Man trio, the movie also marks the reappearances of the iconic villains. Alongside Alfred Molina’s Doctor Octopus, fans also saw Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin and Jamie Foxx’s Max Dillon. With that note, Marvel fans may have certainly missed one or two details of the movie.

After Tom Holland’s Spider-Man identity was revealed, he went to Doctor Strange to help him out of the situation that was creating havoc. However, they accidentally broke open the multiverse. It was the gateway for the return of iconic villains of Spider-Man from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s films.
With that note, seeing the marvelous return of Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin in Spider-Man: No Way Home (although it was heavily rumored even after Marvel Studios doing their best to keep it a secret) was fascinating. But his return also gave away some fine details in the movie that many Marvel fans must have missed.

There is actually not so many alleys in NYC like it used to unlike Chicago if you see an alley from a movie or a tv show in NYC it’s most likely this.

As for Dafoe, he had one condition to reprise his role as Norman Osborn. During a chat with Mulderville, the actor revealed that he was not interested in just a cameo. “To do this physical stuff was important to me,” Dafoe told the outlet.
“One of the first things I said to Jon and Amy, basically when they pitched it to me, before there was even a script, was, ‘Listen, I don’t want to just pop in there as a cameo or just fill in in close-ups. I want to do the action because that’s fun for me’.”
Fortunately, the makers had the right amount of screen time the legendary actor needed, and he turned out to be great reprising his role in the movie.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is streaming on Disney+.
