Homecoming The Mary-Jane Casting Poll

[Dark Raven]

If Asa Butterfield is Peter, they can get Peyton List for MJ since she would be the right age. She would be a great choice. And there's nothing wrong with saying she's beautiful because that's simply stating a fact, and not saying it in a lecherous way. MJ will have to be beautiful whatever age she is because that is just part of who she is. That's unavoidable.

Most importantly, List is very bubbly and outgoing like MJ and could complement Asa since he seems more reserved. The only problem is that she's going to be the lead in a spinoff of Jessie so I don't know how that's going to work out schedule wise.

I think she looks more like a Gwen.

I think she looks more like a Gwen.

I was about to say she has more of the plain-jane Gwen look (not just because shes blonde). Shes not beautiful like MJ would be

 

[Dark Raven]

But if you got her as Gwen you'd have to find someone even more outgoing and bubbly than her, and that could be difficult without MJ then just seeming over the top.

And she could look like MJ if she dyed her hair red.

You're kidding, right?

You cast Peyton as Gwen, good luck trying to get a prettier actress for MJ.

Plain...yeah. Like every high school kid would walk past that

I still think she looks more like comic book Gwen.

With a touch of the red dye, it could be sorted

Honestly, and no, I ain't a pedo...I haven't seen a prettier candidate for MJ than her. If she's Gwen, then Mary-Jane is definitely going to be Plain-Jane when standing next to her.

She's definitely not plain and she even does modeling. She even looks sometimes like a young Amber Heard in some odd her real life videos. As Rodrigo said, good luck trying to find someone of that age prettier than her who also has the bubbly personality like MJ.

Even if she were cast as Gwen she definitely wouldn't be a plain Gwen at all.

 

[harryoscop]

I don't see MJ in her, sorry guys.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Madison Davenport!

Thoughts?

And this post highlights exactly the problem of having a cast that is too young. If you cast around 15 or 16, then aren't the casting crew going to have this same problem with MJ too? To be true to the comic, you need a beautiful MJ, but if you are casting an actress of 15 or 16, aren't they going to also have to consider whether she's beautiful or not? But they can't even acknowledge she is or mention it to each other for fear of how they might be perceived. But as soon as she turns 18, then suddenly they can speak freely and point out what was obvious 2 years before.

Until that time though, everyone, fans included, just have to refer to the actress as cute but won't be able to say whether she's actually attractive enough for MJ.

And this is why it would be simpler to just have an older cast so none of these problems arise. None of this beating about the bush.

Wouldn't say no... to her being MJ.
But yeah she has the look.

EDIT: My smiley failed epically.

Rodrigo just hit it out of the park tonight! bravo

Yes, I do expect someone prettier than her.. shes not as pretty as you make her out to be but thats my opinion.

I like her personality in this photoshoot. She knows how to have a laugh

Ladies and Gentlemen, I think we just found our Mary Jane Watson.

up:

And...she has a look of Sarah Bolger

 

[NotSoLongAgo]

Mm she seems to cutesy as well. In her pictures at least

 

[Dark Raven]

Madison Davenport!

Thoughts?

She's 18, but does she look too old for Asa Butterfield?

She was playing romantic interests for Logan Lerman who is in his early 20s.

She'd be suitable for a Dylan O'Brien Spider-Man.

 

[Rodrigo90]

She looks about right I think

Just imagine Asa opening the door to that! Lucky git

Not at all.

 

[Rodrigo90]

She would look too young for Dylan I think
She and Asa would go rather nicely together.

Great look I think
