In the comic books, Osborn evolved from the mentally unstable manic who killed Gwen Stacy into one of the greatest criminal masterminds in the Marvel Universe. Though Marvel would be using an existing, live-action Goblin, the character’s role in modern comics makes it possible for Marvel to offer something new with the character. The inclusion of this particular version of Green Goblin presents Marvel with an excellent opportunity.

The film may only incorporate timelines where they’ve died.
WILLEM DAFOE SPIDERMAN MOVIE
If that’s really what Spider-Man 3’s plan is, that would explain how they can make a multiverse Spider-Man movie without Maguire or Garfield being included. The New York City in that timeline would be one that doesn’t have a wall-crawler swinging around fighting crime. Alternatively, Green Goblin could have succeeded in killing Peter Parker that night. It may be that Norman Osborn survived his fateful encounter with Spider-Man and lived to see another day. It could be discovered that there’s a timeline where the events of Spider-Man played out quite differently. The MCU can make that happen by giving Raimi’s Spider-Man world its own reality and a divergent timeline. A character like the Green Goblin from Raimi’s trilogy wouldn’t work in his story unless he was alive and part of the action. Even if Maguire’s Peter Parker is in the movie, the central character is still the MCU’s Spider-Man. The easiest way for Spider-Man 3 to use Dafoe’s Norman Osborn is, of course, for him to appear as a hallucination (like he was before) or in a flashback sequence - but not only would that feel like the waste of a great character, but it wouldn’t serve a clear narrative purpose. How MCU Phase 4 May Be Incorporating Raimi’s Spider-Man Characters That being said, Willem Dafoe’s character is dead in the world of Sam Rami’s Spider-Man movies, so that naturally raises questions about how his return would work in a way that makes sense. Through the multiverse concept, Marvel can give the two Spider-Man franchise their very own realities, where they would exist separate from the world of the MCU’s heroes and villains. If WandaVision can have Fox’s Quicksilver (Evan Peters), then it stands to reason that Marvel can pull off something similar with its movies. Thanks to the multiverse, bringing in characters from both Raimi’s trilogy and The Amazing Spider-Man movies is now a possibility.

If this is true, then it’s possible that Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will be crossing paths with his comic counterpart’s greatest enemy.
This hasn’t been officially confirmed, but the news was backed up by reports that Dafoe was spotted on set. Amidst rumors that multiple characters tied to past Spider-Man franchises are joining the MCU’s third Spider-Man movie, it was reported that Dafoe would be back as the Green Goblin. It would seem that Dafoe may get to play the iconic villain at least one more time on the big screen. This was the end for Osborn, but Willem Dafoe did reprise the role in the other two installments in the trilogy by appearing as a hallucination to his son, Harry (James Franco). However, he failed to count on Peter’s spider-sense, and was subsequently impaled by his own glider. While attempting to distract Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire), the Green Goblin remotely activated his glider, believing that he could kill his enemy with a sneak attack. In Sam Raimi’s first Spider-Man movie, Norman Osborn was killed in the final battle with Spider-Man. Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin is supposedly set to appear in Spider-Man 3, despite the fact that the character died nearly decades ago.
