In December, the Illuminerd reported that Willem Dafoe was in talks to join the MCU cast of Spider-Man 3. Well, now we can fully support that claim as sources close to GWW and the same ones that revealed that Alfred Molina was cast as a result of Spidey has now informed us that Willem Dafoe reported to the set as of today and will indeed play a role in the next threequel.
This confirms the previous Illuminerd report and further expands the idea that this is indeed an extremely ambitious multiverse film that seeks to expand Spider-Man and the MCU on Sony properties.
In addition to the confirmation of his appearance on the set, our source was sparse with the details, unfortunately, but we trust his background, obviously, and we are excited about the prospect, however. Big congratulations to Illuminerd for first reporting that Dafoe was potentially joining the now growing multiverse set.
We will try to gather more details and update this post accordingly, but for now we can at least say that Dafoe has arrived.
