Chatting with
Screen Junkies, Kirsten Dunst who portrayed 'Mary Jane Watson' throughout Sam Raimi's
Spider-Man trilogy, shares her thoughts on why she thinks the fourth installment didn't work out. And she also praises the upcoming reboot, and it's new star Andrew Garfield.
“I feel like it was time, you know,” she said “Sometimes they always want to push things for money reasons or whatever and it just didn’t come together the way they probably had wanted or envisioned. I like Andrew Garfield so much as an actor and Emma Stone so I think they’ll be great in the new version.”
“I felt like what we had during those films was so special, like me and Tobey and Sam. It was such a unique experience and also because it was these independent minds and actors and you’re making this huge film. It’s great that all these kids are such huge fans and to be a part of a movie like that is very special, especially a good franchise. So to end on 3 I think is the perfect way to leave it. No hard feelings, she says she’ll still be a fan of the new Spidey movies. “Of course I’m going to see the movie. Of course.”
No actress is attached to play 'MJ' in the Marc Webb-directed reboot with reports claiming the character won't be appearing at all. However, Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, and Sally Field are set to star, with Zooey Deschanel &
Chris Zylka speculated. And commencing filming next month,
Spider-Man swings back into theaters July 3, 2012 in 3D.
