Unused 'Spider-Man' Green Goblin and Female Goblin Concept Designs by Miles Teves

For the movie Spider-Man (2002) there were a lot of designs for the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe). Before it was decided to make a static mask, they experimented with silicone appliances and an animatronic mask.

Here's a video by Studio ADI (Amalgamated Dynamics) of the designs and visual effects tests using concept artist Miles Teves designs.


Here are the concept designs by Miles Teves - who also worked on King Kong (2005), Total Recall (1990), and Real Steel (2010) - of the mask and costume along with his comments from his official site.



"This take on the Green Goblin, and the one after this, was done for the costume designer on the first film. Everyone seemed to like it, yet somehow, in the mix of Hollywood nonsense, we ended up with that horrible, clunky, Kabuki mask in the film that everyone agrees is one of the worst villain costumes in modern cinema."

"Another wasted opportunity."

Writers: Stan Lee (Marvel comic book), Steve Ditko (Marvel comic book), and David Koepp         (screenplay)
Stars: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst and Willem Dafoe

What do you think of the illustrations? Would you have preferred the "live" mask to the one in the film?
