As Doctor Otto Octavius (Alfred Molina) and Holland’s Parker fight during the bridge scene in the new sneak peek, Iron Man’s nano-tech begins to take over Doc Ock’s tentacles. Apparently coming from the Iron Spider suit, it seems that the nano-particles could actually reverse the effects of the neurolink that corrupted the villain almost 20 years ago in Spider-Man 2 (2002).
After all, there’s another shot in the trailer where it appears Octavius is helping Parker, Ned Leeds (Jacob Batalon), and MJ (Zendaya). He also doesn’t appear to be present during the subsequent fight scene featuring other villains from the “Spider-Verse”.
In Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Stark himself uses his nano-tech to suture his knife wound after Thanos stabs him, so it is not far-fetched to assume Molina’s Doctor Octopus might have tried to use the technology, only to find himself proverbially healed.
Joining Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019), the official description of Spider-Man: No Way Home reads:
For the first time in the cinematic history of Spider-Man, our friendly neighborhood hero is unmasked and no longer able to separate his normal life from the high-stakes of being a Super Hero. When he asks for help from Doctor Strange the stakes become even more dangerous, forcing him to discover what it truly means to be Spider-Man.
Holland and Zendaya are joined by Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Stephen Strange), Jon Favreau (Happy Hogan), Marisa Tomei (Aunt May), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds), and, of course, Alfred Molina (Doctor Octopus) in the film.
