Fans have been caught in a web of nostalgia ever since Spider-Man: No Way Home was released. The movie has smashed several box-office records and has already notched $1.16 billion at the box office. The movie saw the return of Tom Holland as the titular hero but also brought back a multitude of characters from Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy and Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man films.
SONY PICTURES RELEASING/MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT/MOVIESTORE COLLECTION / Via Alamy Let's take a refresher through the past movies and see what the reintroduced multi-verse characters were last doing. Warning, SPOILERSahead. Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker/Spider-Man last appeared in Spider-Man 3. In his last scene, he visits the diner where Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst) works and sings, and both reconcile after remaining separated for most of the movie.
Sony Pictures Releasing Andrew Garfield's Peter Parker/Spider-Man last appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. In his last scene, he is about to battle Aleksei Sytsevich/Rhino before the end credits start.
Sony Pictures Releasing Both the Spider-Men enter the MCU after Peter Parker botches Dr. Strange's spell. They arrive in Ned's apartment and join forces with Holland's Spider-Man.
Disney/Sony / Via media.giphy.com The Green Goblin (Willem Defoe) was last seen (alive) in the climax of Spider-Man where he gets impaled by the blades of his own glider and dies on the spot. He also cameos in the OG Spider-Man trilogy as a ghost that guides his son Harry down the wrong path.
Sony Pictures Releasing The same movie also gives us one of the most iconic lines spoken by a comic book villain. It appears in the introductory scenes of Norman Osborn/Green Goblin.
Sony Pictures Releasing Fans were thrilled when they heard the same line from Norman's mouth in Spider-Man: No Way Home. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, Norman Osborn/Green Goblin flies into the current universe and throws his grenades to attack Spider-Man.

Dr. Otto Octavius aka Doc Ock last appeared in Spider-Man 2. After his climactic battle with Spider-Man, he realizes his folly, and to save the city and atone for his sins, decides to sacrifice himself while destroying his experiment.
Sony Pictures Releasing As the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home tell us, it was during his supposed last moment that Dr. Octavius was transported to another universe. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, Doc Ock appears suddenly on the bridge and attacks Spider-Man before being imprisoned.

Sony Pictures Releasing The last time fans saw Dr. Curt Connors aka the Lizard, he was holding Spider-Man from falling to his death in The Amazing Spider-Man. His Lizard form was waning and he was slowly returning to his human form.
Sony Pictures Releasing But Connors does appear later in a mid-credits scene of The Amazing Spider-Man where he is incarcerated and a mysterious man visits him and asks him some questions. Both, the Sandman and the Lizard are transported from their respective universes to the universe of Tom Holland's Spider-Man. While the Lizard is the first to be imprisoned by Dr. Strange, Sandman helps Spider-Man subdue Electro.
Sony Pictures Releasing / Marvel Entertainment / Courtesy Everett Collection Max Dillon aka Electro was last seen battling Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. During the battle, Spider-Man causes his body to be overloaded with electricity and his body disintegrates with an explosion.
Sony Pictures Releasing In Spider-Man: No Way Home, Electro is quite reluctant when it comes to returning to his universe. He offers Spidey one of his toughest battles, and Doc Ock is needed to help defeat him.
