LOS ANGELES: Hollywood veteran Willem Dafoe is open to returning as 'Spider-Man' villain Green Goblin aka Norman Osborne "if everything was right". The 67-year-old actor played the character in Sam Raimi's 2000s 'Spider-Man' trilogy, led by Toby Maguire.

In an interview with the online magazine Inverse, Dafoe said Green Goblin is a "great role" and he would gladly reprise the part in future.

"If everything was right... I mean, that's a great role. I liked the fact that it's a double role both times. Twenty years ago, and fairly recently, both times (were) very different experiences, but I had a good time on both," Dafoe said.

The actor most recently returned to the Spider-verse for the 2021 film "Spider-Man: No Way Home", which had him reuniting on-screen with Maguire's version of the character.

Dafoe's latest release is thriller "Inside" from director Vasilis Katsoupis. The film features the actor as Nemo, a high-end art thief, who finds himself trapped in a New York penthouse after his heist doesn't go as planned.
