Liz Allen Will Reportedly Be Peter Parker's Love Interest In SPIDER-MAN: HOMCOMING
Yesterday, Zendaya seemingly denied reports that she'll play Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man: Homecoming and said she won't be a love interest. Well, we may now know who will be wooing Peter Parker!
Whether or not Zendaya is playing Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man: Homecoming remains to be seen, but the actress claims that she won't be a love interest in the reboot from Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures. Superhero movies obviously don't have to feature a romantic interest for the titular hero, but they more often than not do, so who will Peter Parker end up asking to the Homecoming dance?
Well, according to a new report from Latino-Review, they've heard from sources close to Spider-Man: Homecoming that Peter will actually be interested in Liz Allen, a chracter played by Laura Harrier.
This actually follows the classic Stan Lee and Steve Ditko comic books where Peter had a crush on Liz. Unfortunately for him, she was dating Flash Thompson, and by the time she started developing feeling for the wall-crawler, he had started dating Betty Brant. It will be interesting to see how Spider-Man: Homecoming handles their relationship anyway, and Liz definitely makes a change from MJ and Gwen.
