Wilson Fisk
for Wilson Fisk in Nolan’s The Amazing Spider-Man Trilogy
Suggested by matthewsimmons
If Nolan had made The Amazing Spider-Man trilogy instead of his Batman films. First film in 2010, second in 2013, and final film in 2017. More grounded, realistic, and dark. First film would be an origin story set in high school much like TASM we got. However, the main villain would be Vulture who works with The Kingpin, the secondary villain. Tinkerer would also be in the film and helps Vulture with his suit. Norman would be introduced and we do find out he is sick. Vulture would kill Captain Stacy and Urich. The film would end with Peter showing up at the Bugle and speaking to Brant. Film two would open with HS graduation and move into college. Norman would become Goblin aka the main villain. He would be searching for a cure to his sickness and of course die with his own glider at the end but not before murdering Gwen. The secondary villain of the film would be Richard Fisk. Shocker will be working for The Rose and the opening fight will be against him. The third film would feature Kraven as the main villain hired by Harry to kill Spider-Man who has been retired for the past three years. During this time Black Cat has came into the picture in NYC and Mysterio is a new villain, the secondary antagonist of the film working for The Kingpin who breaks out of prison.
