Spider-Man: No Way Homeis just around the corner and it is expected to be one of the biggest MCU films to date, largely due to the return of many familiar faces from previousSpider-Manfilms. While it’s not certain if all of the original actors will be back in their roles, faces such as Rhys Ifans, who is best known for portraying Dr. Curt Connors/Lizard inThe Amazing Spider-Man, have teased their return in the highly anticipated MCU film.
While bothSandman and Lizardhave been confirmed to return inSpider-Man: No Way Home, whether or not Thomas Haden Church fromSpider-Man 3and Ifans will play those characters again is less clear. Ifans addressed the hype surrounding the upcoming MCU entry and if his past portrayal as the comic book character would have any involvement, simply saying fans will have to wait and see.

“Well, you know, like most Christmas presents, the good thing is not knowing what’s in them until it’s time to open them,” Ifans teased during an interview with Murphy’s Multiverse. It’s still unclear just how much screen time many ofthese Spider-Man villainswill have when they return. However, it will no doubt be a welcoming return, as the idea of characters crossing over from other universes like Sam Raimi’sSpider-Mantrilogy has been building up for quite a while.
