Just a few days after Marc Webb announced that Mary Jane Watson (played by Shailene Woodley) had been cut entirely from The Amazing Spider-Man 2, we have news that Sarah Gadon (Cosmopolis) has joined the Spider-Man franchise in an unannounced role.
Marc Webb said that despite Mary Jane being cut from the sequel she would appear in full in the third Spider-Man movie. However, no one mentioned if Mary Jane would still be played by Woodley and rumors of the role being re-cast have been going crazy ever since this news broke. It is possible that Webb lied to everyone and just said it to avoid having to admit that Woodley was a victim of bad casting. Then again, Gadon could be playing a completely different character that we don't know about yet.
The only thing this has all proved is that whatever the exact story is for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 obviously is not needing Mary Jane. Of course if it does and they just cut the character out entirely then that sucks. We'll just have to wait and see what role Sarah Gadon will have. I'm sure it will surface before too long.
