Anyone thinking Zendaya as Valeriya Toomes?

move over Hathaway we got a new Vulturess? ha

 

[Neno_Kos]

And we thought Avi Arad isnt working on this film, dammit...

 

[marijuanawatson]

Well, now that I think about it a chemistry test doesn't have to be for a romantic relationship, just to show if the actors work well together. Tom tested with RDJ and Chris Evans so....

And that would work/explain if Zendaya is playing a villain in future installments as to avenge her father. I'm holding onto hope that she's not MJ!

I predict Tilly Keeper as Mary Jane or an unknown. Tony as Harry, Flash, or someone new and Laura as Liz Allen.

Why Tily Keeper?

 

[marijuanawatson]

Why Tily Keeper?

Because she's been rumored as MJ/in the film for months now.... Plus she looks like her

Ehh, you mean when Tom followed her on Twitter? 'cause i've never seen her brought by a rumor. I still hope Stefanie Scott, Liana Liberato or Madison Davenport are considered.

If Tony Stark hooks up with Peter, will you trust Feige?

a bold new direction for Marvel indeed.

Post. Of. The. Day!

 

[Harry Dresden]

Sasha Pieterse if it's not Zendaya.

 

[JB33]

Too bad she's 29 because Holland Roden is one of the best MJ lookalikes I've come across.

In general, though, it's really difficult to nail down an actress for this role.

It's not entirely impossible, though I think it's more likely that she's playing a love interest or friend of Peter's as opposed to a future made up villain.

I actually prefer Zendaya over Tilly Keeper for MJ.

Yeah, I really want Stefanie Scott as MJ! I just said Keeper because of all the rumors/only non-white actress that's been rumored as her.

Uh....I'mma say no on that one. I'm starting to warm up to the idea of Z as Toomes daughter.

And let's not forget that MJ is cast already guys. :|

 

[BatsDC]

We don't even know if MJ will be in this movie.

I saw sisters recently and Madison Davenport was terrible in it

Rats! Holland Rodent is 29?

Tom Holland... Holland Roden...

I agree. She'd be a terrible MJ.

MJ is supposed to be a knock out and the prettiest girl around. I don't know how they can top Zendaya to be honest...

She's stunning, she's sassy and energetic, she's confident, she's charismatic (has a large fan base), she's got a certain amount of toughness to her (a lot of the fan castings I've seen have been too sweet or meek for MJ imo) without being an "ice queen", and apparently she has good chemistry with Holland. I could really see her as MJ... or Felicia.

Now watch...she'll be Gwen or Betty.

 

[Web-Head]

I honestly don't think Zendaya is that attractive

Woah! So is Stefanie Scott!! Lol, having a Black, Black Cat would be so bad ya'll

Honestly, kill me if Zendaya ends up being MJ.

1. she can't act (as far as we know)
2 mostly cast because of fame and ethnicity

Why is it okay for Black Cat and not for Mary Jane?

From Kirsten Dunst and Emma Stone to Gwyneth Paltrow and Natalie Portman, fame is almost always part of the equation for the primary romantic foils. It's just the nature of the beast with these big blockbusters.

As far as acting chops...I'm assuming that she auditioned for her "mysterious" role alongside other actresses (wasn't Amandla a contender?) and did a test with Holland...so hopefully her acting chops are up to par for whatever role she's playing.

Maybe they are looking to diversify Spider-Man's supporting cast? At the end day, I don't really care as long as they manage to capture the character's essence. For me, race is not part of that equation.

Jesus dude, get a grip. She beat out others in an audition process, so clearly she can act, and that last statement is so ridiculously petty and false that it's not even worth responding to.
