Trivia

 * This is a stand-alone film but the story is treated as if it is not, making allusions to other events that have happened in this universe. One of these instances being both Doctor Octopus and Mysterio referencing previously working together in the Sinister Six.
 * The main cast has two sets of actors that share the same first name: James McAvoy and James Marsden, Tom Cavanagh and Tom Felton.
 * 11 cast members have already portrayed comic book characters. These actors include James McAvoy (Dean Hunter, Professor X), James Marsden (Justice, Cyclops), Ron Perlman (Red Hulk, Hellboy), John Barrowman (Mysterio, Malcolm Merlyn), Tom Cavanagh (Yellowjacket, Reverse-Flash), Michael Chiklis (Kingpin, the Thing), Joel Kinnaman (Captain America, Rick Flag), Wes Bentley (Taskmaster, Blackheart), William Sadler (Daniel Roxxon, Simon Stagg), and Matthew Goode (Jerome Bates, Ozymandias).
 * Ron Perlman did motion capture for his role as the Red Hulk.
 * Tom Cavanagh and William Sadler have notable interactions in this movie. They previously appeared together on The Flash, in which they both played comic book villains. Sadler's character, Daniel Roxxon, is very similar to his character from The Flash, Simon Stagg.
 * Erica Winstead and Jerome Bates are both original characters created for the movie. Erica Winstead is Mysterio's former girlfriend who still loves him but believes him to be dead and Jerome Bates is Daniel Roxxon's sadistic head of security.
 * Jason Isaacs was cast as Norman Osborn before he was written out of the film. Isaacs and Felton previously appeared together as father and son Lucius and Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film franchise.
 * Doctor Octopus' daughter, Maria, was created solely for the film and has never existed in the comics before, not even in Earth-2573.
 * The movie received some criticism for the high death count in the film which included random citizens to members of the main cast.
