TheSpider-Man: No Way Homeactors, both 25, and costar Jacob Batalon told theAssociated Presswhich role they could see Chalamet, 25, playing in their superhero universe.
Holland added, “I think it would be good to bring him in as a [friend] and then he kind of becomes bad, and then he can be a villain. He’d be a good villain.”
“I think so too,” said Zendaya, “which is funny ‘cause he’s so nice.” Holland added, “Such a nice bloke, yeah.”
Thinking of potential plot lines with Chalamet’s theoretical Osborn, Holland said, “Maybe he comes for MJ [Zendaya’s character and love interest for Holland’s Peter Parker] and I’m like, ‘Whoa, Harry! You better watch where you’re movin’ around my girl, bro!'”
“That’s the origin story,” joked Zendaya.
Chalamet toldTimemagazinein October that he was onceadvised not to take a superherofilm role: “One of my heroes — I can’t say who or he’d kick my ass — he put his arm around me the first night we met and gave me some advice: ‘No hard drugs and no superhero movies.'”

“I read twice and I left sweating in a total panic,” Chalamet said at the time, perThe Hollywood Reporter. “I called my agent Brian Swardstrom and I said, ‘Brian, I thought about this a lot and I have to go back and knock on that door and read again,’ and he told me the story of Sean Young and how, in an attempt to become Catwoman, [she] had scared everyone away when she showed up at the studio gates in costume.”
