At Harry's suggestion, their first recruit is the recently imprisoned Aleksei Sytsevich. His associate, Gustav Fiers, asking about forming a team of supervillains visits him. Harry is later held in Ravencroft Institute and recovering. Peter subdues Harry, but the web securing Gwen breaks and she falls to her death. For Peter Parker, theres no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). Peter manages to save her, leaving her dangling by a web while him and Harry fight. Its great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). As revenge for allowing him to die, Harry kidnaps Gwen and throws her from a great height into a clock tower. After seeing Gwen Stacy alongside him, Harry deduces that Spider-Man is actually Peter. He then steals a glider, armor and weapons to confront Spider-Man. Harry forces Menken to inject a spider venom serum directly into his bloodstream, causing his illness to worsen. With Electro's help, Harry breaks into Oscorp, takes Menken hostage and uses him to access the Special Projects lab. Framed by Menken for covering up Max Dillon's accident, he is forced out of his position as Oscorp CEO and becoming increasingly desperate, he breaks into Ravencroft (where Harry learns from his father's assistant Felicia) that Ravencroft holds people at the orders of Oscorp and experiments on them), releases Electro and forms an alliance with him. He concludes he needs Spider-Man's blood for the cure to work, but Spider-Man refuses out of fear of the negative effects it could have on him like it did with Dr. After Norman's death, Harry inherits Oscorp, becoming its CEO at the behest of Vice President Donald Menken. The Amazing Spider-Man 2’s Harry Osborn, who became the Green Goblin in the film’s third act, also used a noticeably different glider from Willem Dafoe’s Raimi trilogy iteration, and though Harry’s glider featured green lights, the one shown in the trailer more closely resembles the shape of Norman’s vehicle. Norman gives Harry a small electronic device which contains his life's work, hoping Harry can succeed. He tells Harry the illness is hereditary and that Harry has reached the age where the effects become apparent. He is reunited with his estranged son Harry.
Years later, Norman is dying after failing to find a cure. After Richard discovers Norman's intentions, he sabotages the research and flees. He also intended to sell their work in the form of biological weapons. His father is dying of retroviral hyperplasia and seeks to create a cure with Richard Parker through their scientific research in genetic engineering. He is played by Dane DeHaan, while Chris Cooper portrays a dying Norman Osborn.
Harry Osborn, later known as the Green Goblin, is the secondary antagonist of 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
