Who is Sadie Sink playing?

To be honest, I don't understand why Mary Jane needed to be "reinvented". Either do the character or don't. But this wishy washy "she's a 'reinvention' of the character, she's a homage" stuff annoys me.
Racists in the company didn't want a black MJ. That's it.

MJ is such a sore spot for me.

Mary Jane Watson is my favorite female Marvel character. She was attrocious in the Raimi films. She was completely cutout of TASM2. I figured if anyone could do her justice, it would be Marvel. They basically created a brand new character and slapped the MJ initials on her and called it a day.

Zendaya could have played a traditional MJ and she could have been great.

Now, who knows what the new status quo will be.

It's like giving us a Parker Phillips as Spiderman and saying its a homage to Peter Parker.

I mean....as much as I enjoy this Spidey, they erased so many of his classic characters. No Mary Jane. No Osbornes. No Venom. What are you ashamed of?
 
I assume but do not know for certain Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) is off the board just like Miles (Shameik Moore) at least until after Spider-Verse 3 comes out in 2027 if not longer for certain characters.

Sony has in the past and present expressed a desire for an animated cinematic universe.

Pascal said the film would focus on the characters Gwen Stacy / Spider-Gwen, Cindy Moon / Silk, and Jess Drew / Spider-Woman, and said Across the Spider-Versewould serve as a "launching pad" for it. In May 2023, producer Avi Arad stated that the film would be titled Spider-Woman.


Feige was more definitive about the potential of another highly anticipated Marvel character — Spider-Man’s Miles Morales — showing up in the MCU in the near future. “That is nowhere,” he said. Until Sony Pictures (which holds the film rights to the character) completes its animated Miles trilogy with 2027’s “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse,” Feige explained, “We’ve been told to stay away.”

I particularly don't care about animated Marvel movies. I wish Spider-Verse franchise is ending with Beyond, so there won't be too much Marvel movies coming out in the cinemas.

This would be a bit contrived, but I'm partial to the idea others have suggested where they could say since NWH, MJ got into into modeling and is using Mary Jane as a stage name. Say she got into to help pay for MIT lol.

As I said, its on the nose, but I figure you can use this as an opportunity to soft reboot the character considering the time jump.

Or just split the difference between what was already established in the films with her dabbling in drawing/sketching and have her become either a designer in the fashion industry or an artist that goes onto eventually start an art museum. And just say that she goes by the name Mary Jane Watson now as part of her public persona.

It builds on an aspect of her character in the films, kind of ties back into her comic origins as a bit of a socialite without completely throwing out what came before and would work as a natural evolution of the character. Would also be a good way to explain how she and Peter are able to afford the things and living that she does whenever they officially find each other and get back together again.
 
For whatever it's worth, Kristian Harloff was chatting with John Rocha and he said he's heard from a source that Sadie is "pretty good guarantee" Gwen Stacy.

Yes I am sure, @Still Wynning you do know that "You sure?" reaction annoys me since Ive directly told you about it in the past, and you keep doing that especially its the first thing that pops up in my notifications and of course I'm checking my notifications.

I already said the same thing to the person (Venom1988) I've added to my ignore list and they keep making reactions to my posts despite my direct request to them to stopping doing it as reactions are excluded from the ignore function.
 
I’m sorry but I think there’s a non-zero chance she’s playing mayday. It’s an unbelievable rumor. I’m 100% sure Kevin or Tom would’ve not let that plot pass at all
 
Had Andrew or Tobey been in BND , which is what Sony originally wanted, I could buy that she was playing Mayday , but I doubt she's playing that role .

That said, she much more likely to play Mayday than playing " The Real Mary Jane Watson" , which was rumored months back.

I think characters like Gwen Stacy, Black Cat/ Felicia Hardy and Carlie Cooper , are much more likely .
 
Sadie and her longtime hair stylist’s opinion on her hair from a couple of years ago: They were both skeptical of ever changing her natural hair color and preferred wearing a wig if necessary.

These movies are inconsistent about matching comic book characters and hair is no impediment to casting whether they do something or nothing with it.

Just something to keep in mind whether she changes her hair or not as filming goes on.

L’O: The hair is so incredible though. It’s so goddessy. Have you ever dyed it or changed it drastically?

SS: No, I’ve never touched it. My secret is that I don’t put heat on it and I don’t color it. I don’t know if I’d ever dye it; that scares me. So I’m not going to do that at the moment. If a role required a hair color change, I’d opt for a wig.

”As soon as we [chopped off her hair for the movie Odessa], [Sadie] was like, ‘Oh my god, I feel like myself. I’m not freaked out by cutting it all off—hair grows,’” relays [Tommy] Buckett. As far as the hue goes, though? “I would never,” he says, effusing over the coppery red with natural golden tones. “I’ve had this conversation with her many times, like, ‘Whatever you do, don’t let anyone color your hair. You’ll never get it back.’”

Cool. It’s fine if you don’t like the Spider-Verse films. They’re still objectively better than pretty much anything in the MCU, and I’m saying this as an MCU fan who hasn’t been as down bad on them as of late. Continuing to block people because you disagree isn’t going to change that.
She doesn't look the part.
Good lord, he was being sarcastic.

For the record, you're not in my block list. Its just annoying you keep using the "You Sure?" reaction when I already told you directly in the past, that it annoys me because by pressing that reaction button of You Sure? is like you're asking me, if I'm unsure of what I said. And I felt like I needed to defend/explain what I posted.

I also feel disrespected when you keep doing that when you know, it annoys me - which is the same thing I said to the person who I added in my blocklist whom I already asked twice in their profile page, and to this day, they are still doing it (maybe because they know its getting a reaction out of me, since ignore/block don't hide reactions from the people we already put in ignore list).

Spider-Verse movies are overrated in my opinion and I don't like the animation. I have also said, many times in the past that there should be fewer Marvel films. I really don't want any Marvel films coming out from Sony anymore.
 
Isn't MCU Ned Leeds basically Ganke Lee (Miles Morales best friend)? They literally stole Miles canon best friend and changed his name to a Peter Parker supporting character. Its like when BTAS called Jason Todd Tim Drake. :o
