Over the past few years, Sony has been working diligently to build up its own universe of Spider-Man characters, with villains such as Venom, Morbius, Carnage and soon Kraven the Hunter. Even characters like Madame Web are about to get their own film. Now a new rumour has surfaced that Doctor Octopus and Mysterio are also getting their own respective films, played by different actors than before. Alfred Molina and Jake Gyllenhaal will not be reprising their roles.

According to the rumour, Sony wants to hire Hugh Dancy in the role of Otto Octavius / Doctor Octopus. However, the rumour does not say anything about who will play Quentin Beck / Mysterio. Given that Sony hasn't done very well with its previous films in the universe, we remain sceptical about whether this is a good idea. Whether the rumour is true or not, however, we'll have to wait and see. Until then, we'll take it all with a pinch of salt.
