Kirsten Dunst has had a long, eclectic career, but her biggest film role by far is the iconic comic book character Mary-Jane Watson in the Spider-Man trilogy.
But now that the series is being rebooted with a younger cast, relative newcomer Shailene Woodley is taking over the famously redheaded role.
So how does Kirsten feel about the Descendants star being cast as the newer model?
She couldn’t be happier!
Kirsten actually really likes Shailene! She says:
“I’ve met her a few times and we’ve talked about health foods, we know some of the same people, she’s really into finding springs and natural water and she’ll go get her water and things like that. I’ve done that before, and we’ve talked about that. I think she’s a sweetheart and such a good actress.
I’m happy. If I had to pick someone, I’m happy she’s following in my shoes.”
Aw, that’s sweet!
We wonder how Emma Stone is going to feel about Shailene once she starts upside-down kissing her man Andrew Garfield!
Something tells us not quite so chummy!
