“After a while, when it was constantly in the press and in places like Twitter, I was like, ‘Wait a minute, is this true?’ So I called up my team and said, ‘Are you guys having conversations that I don’t know about…Are you guys being cagey?’ And they weren’t,” Domingo explained. “But there had been conversations of me coming into Marvel in some way, so we did follow up with a sit down meeting with the heads of Marvel. So I did do that.
“I’m all about energy and want to do things that make sense and bring gentle energy and I want a role to be mine,” Domingo continued. “Whatever that role is, whatever I develop.

So I feel like that was never a conversation from my point of view. If I was discussed, I still don’t know if I was discussed.
“I would love to get the live-action version, too. Wouldn’t that be cool? I would love to tear that up on the big screen,” the actor said. “But I’m having a great time. I love the animation, I love the idea of playing Norman Osborn. And you’ll see his evolution into the Green Goblin in coming seasons, which will be very cool.”Daisy Ridley Wants to Join the MCU
