Kirsten Dunst Returns as Mary Jane

The Spider-Man film franchise has made numerous missteps over the years, but most fans will agree that their biggest mistake was casting Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane. Kirsten Dunst is not a terrible actress and there are certain moments when she displays genuine talent. The role simply isn't right for her; the emphasis placed on her character and acting career in Spider-Man 3 was one of the major flaws in the movie. Many fans held out hope that she would not be returning for the next two films, but in a recent interview she confirmed she would be reprising her role in future installments of the franchise. Whether or not this affects the quality of the films is something only time will tell.
