Kirsten Dunst Says There's Still Time For Mary Jane Spider-Man Return
Kirsten Dunst says there's still time for her to return as Mary Jane Watson in a future Spider-Man project though notes she knows of no plans. Dunst first brought the webslinger's iconic love interest to life in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man as Peter Parker's next-door neighbor who aspires to be a Broadway actress. Though unable to achieve her goal in the first film, MJ would see her dream come true in Spider-Man 2 as the lead of The Importance of Being Earnest while subsequently struggling as she loses her role in Spider-Man 3.
Dunst's MJ was romantically attached to a number of other men in Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy before Peter, some of whom include Joe Manganiello's Flash Thompson, James Franco's Harry Osborn and Daniel Gillies' John Jameson. Though receiving some mixed reviews for the damsel-in-distress portrayal of the character, Dunst's MJ would generally receive largely positive reviews from critics and audiences alike for the believable chemistry she shared with Tobey Maguire and capturing the spirit of the comics. Though Dunst ultimately didn't return for the multiverse happy Spider-Man: No Way Home, she isn't ruling out another MJ performance.
