Spider-Man: No Way Home saw the return of iconic villains from various Spider-Man universes, but it missed Spider-Man’s most obvious enemy.
Spider-Man: No Way Home saw the return of legendary villains from several Spiderman films, but lacked its most obvious villain. Spider-Man: No Way Home flipped the MCU with the official launch of the multiverse, with Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire joining Tom Holland as whatever version of Spider-Man they originally played. Spider-Man: No Way Home also iconic villains from Garfield and Maguire’s Spiderman Film franchises including The Green Goblin/Norman Osborn (Willem Defoe), Doctor Octopus/Otto Octavius (Alfred Molina) and Electro/Maxwell Dillon (Jamie Foxx).
However, to bring back these villains Spider-Man: No Way Home missed bringing back one of Holland’s Spider-Man enemies and the most obvious to the film: Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal). Doctor Strange’s (Benedict Cumberbatch) spell brings to itself all the people who discovered Peter Parker’s identity just before they died. With the large number of timelines in the MCU, Mysterio could have pulled from another timeline and joined the fight against the three Peter Parkers. This could also have accounted for Mysterio’s faux multiverse storyline Spider-Man: Far From Home a reality for him and explain how he knew about the multiverse.
Could No Way Home’s missing villain explain a plothole?
More information on the Multiverse has since appeared in the MCU Spider-Man: No Way Home and audiences have seen different timelines now, particularly in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which also shows different variants of people. in the Spider-Man: Far From HomeMysterio refers to the main timeline as Earth-616, revealed during Doctor Strange 2 to be the actual designation of the main MCU universe, but it’s unclear how he knew that considering his multiverse storyline was meant to be pure fabrication. With the number of timelines in the multiverse, it seems unlikely that it was just a coincidence that Mysterio got the label right.
However, it’s possible that Mysterio was actually affected by Doctor Strange’s spell and he was pushed out of the main universe and brought back earlier in the timeline. This would have meant that Mysterio was actually telling the truth about the multiverse in Spider-Man: Far From Homeand explained how he knew the name of the earth. On the other hand, Mysterio admits that his multiverse history was just a lie to deceive Peter and Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), so at best Mysterio should have lied about his deception, so it’s unlikely that Doctor Stanges Spell did it This effect and the absence of Mysterio ultimately doesn’t fix that Spider-Man: Far From Home plot hole.
Why No Way Home was smart to omit Mysterio
Despite plot hole Spider-Man: Far From HomeWas the MCU smart to leave Mysterio out? Spider-Man: No Way Home. Mysterio’s public statement revealing Peter’s identity made an enormous impact, big enough to cause the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home happen. Since Mysterio was the one causing this, he played a role in Spider-Man: No Way Home since the events were just a continuation of his actions.
In addition, several villains have already reappeared Spider-Man: No Way Home and adding another would have muddled the plot. Since Mysterio had been such a new enemy of Spider-Man, bringing him back wouldn’t have had the same effect as the more iconic villains had. Finally, Mysterio wasn’t corrupted by an outside force like Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, and Electro, so the whole Antidote plot might not have worked for him. Despite his ties to the multiverse, Mysterio’s return would have happened Spider-Man: No Way Home too complicated, and best left out the most obvious villain.
