Octavius initially dismisses Parker until he remembers that Oscorp funds his research and that Parker is the "brilliant but lazy" student of Dr. Two years later, Parker meets Octavius through Norman's son Harry Osborn. Despite this, Octavius continues his work with his wife, Rosie. Years later, Osborn would become the Green Goblin and die while fighting Spider-Man. His work is connected to and funded by Oscorp, run by Norman Osborn, whom Octavius knew. Otto Octavius is a brilliant nuclear physicist and a scientific idol of Peter Parker, who aims to write his college paper on him. Molina's performance as the character, considered one of the earliest portrayals of Octavius as a tragic villain, has been positively received by critics and audiences, and the character has come to be considered to be one of the most iconic villains in superhero films. Molina has expressed further interest in reprising the role in the in-development Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU) film based on The Sinister Six. After briefly reuniting with his version of Spider-Man, now older, Octavius is returned to his universe. After Spider-Man replaces his burnt inhibitor chip with a working one, Octavius regains control of his arms like he did before his original death, and joins Spider-Man and two alternate versions of him in fighting other universe-displaced supervillains, including Octavius' former colleague and Harry's father Norman. The character returns in Spider-Man: No Way Home, being transported into another universe shortly before his death, due to a magic spell gone wrong, and ends up clashing with that universe's Spider-Man and his allies. Ultimately, as the experiment begins to destroy New York City, Spider-Man reveals himself as Peter to Octavius after damaging his arms, and inspires him to regain control of them and sacrifice himself to sink the fusion reactor into the East River, where he presumably drowns. Along the way, he comes into conflict with Spider-Man, with Osborn offering to give Octavius the tritium he needs to complete his experiment in exchange for handing him over to him. After ending up in the hospital and massacring the surgeons attempting to save Octavius by sawing them off, the arms' AI convince him to steal funds in order to attempt the experiment again, over the course of which crime spree the Daily Bugle dubs him Doctor Octopus, or "Doc Ock" for short. When Octavius' fusion reactor experiment using tritium becomes unstable, resulting in Rosie's death, the harness of powerful robotic tentacle arms equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) which he was using safely handle the materials is fused to his body, burning the inhibitor chip keeping the arms from controlling his nervous system. Octavius is introduced in Spider-Man 2 as a nuclear physicist and friend and mentor of Peter Parker, whose research into fusion power with his wife Rosie (portrayed by Donna Murphy) is being sponsored by Oscorp's genetic and scientific research division, headed by Harry Osborn. Otto Gunther Octavius also known as Doctor Octopus is a fictional character portrayed by Alfred Molina in Spider-Man 2 (2004) and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film Spider-Man: No Way Hom e (2021), based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. ![]() ![]() Brilliant engineer and inventor, Genius-level intellect, Superb strategist, Wears super-strong and durable mechanical appendages, Telepathic control over his mechanical arms ![]()
