Kirsten Dunst is speaking out about her experience with the character of Mary Jane in this summer’s Spiderman 3, and it looks like she had a good time with it.
Picking up the story from the second Spider-Man movie, Mary Jane and Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) are together. But trouble soon intervenes. “It was a great journey for me, this one,” Dunst said about the evolving nature of her character. “I definitely got to do … the most work in this that satisfied me. … I had a lot to sink my teeth into on this one.”
Now as I prepare to see my email box filled with comments from the anti-Dunst crowd, let me first say that I really like Dunst. Do I like her as Mary Jane? Not fully. I don’t mind her as MJ, but I am sure there are dozens that can do a better job.
Ok, now that is out of the way, I only have to wonder if she is turning face on the rumours that she is out of the franchise. Presuming MJ is even slated to be in the next Spiderman movie, Dunst has already said she wasn’t interested in doing it.
Now we hear news that Tobey Maguire hasn’t ruled out Spiderman 4 despite previous rumours saying he was done with the franchise. Now Dunst is sharing similar satisfaction with the role. But she didn’t suggest that she looked forward to more of it, just in this time around she really enjoyed her character. It seems the character is deeper in this episode, and maybe Dunst will pull something off that makes everyone actually LIKE her character instead.
So does this mean that all that flip flopping might lead to a Spiderman 4 with the same cast anyways??
What do you think?
