Spider-Man’s Kirsten Dunst Says She Would Make Another Superhero Movie “Because You Get Paid A Lot Of Money”
Kirsten Dunst famously played Mary Jane alongside Tobey Maguire in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man films, but the actress hasn’t returned to the superhero space since. Could that change? Speaking to Marie Claire, Dunst said “yes” when asked if she would come back in some way.
“Because you get paid a lot of money, and I have two children, and I support my mother,” she said.
Dunst played Mary Jane in Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, and Spider-Man 3. After she wrapped up her run with Spider-Man 3 in 2007, she made smaller movies like Melancholia and On the Road. After those, she appeared in the Oscar-nominated movie Hidden Figures, and then starred on the TV show On Becoming a God in Central Florida. In 2021, she earned an Academy Award nomination for her starring role in the Netflix movie The Power of the Dog.
