SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING: Who's Playing Mary Jane? Zendaya Is Playing Mary Jane!

[RandySF]

When Zendaya was cast in the upcoming Marvel Studios/Sony reboot Spider-Man: Homecoming, which will center on the new Peter Parker/Spidey that was introduced in Captain America: Civil War, there was plenty of speculation about who she'd be playing. Well, of the options that floated around, none of them were the big bopper of female characters in the Spider-Man mythos: Mary Jane Watson.

Turns out, she should've been. TheWrap is now exclusively reporting that Zendaya is playing Mary Jane Watson in the Jon Watts-directed Spidey flick.

The site claims to have two sources close to the situation, and they both claim Zendaya is the new MJ for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. There's been no official announcement from Sony or Marvel Studios as of yet, but with production for Spider-Man: Homecoming in full swing, we can expect this news to be addressed shortly.

6. This is awesome.

I love when internet fanboys lose their shit. So James Gunn the director of Guardians Of The Galaxy said "If the most you have to worry about is the race of Spiderman's girlfriend, get a life."
