Zendaya Confirmed to Return as MJ in Spider-Man 3

on

The third Spider-Man movie set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is expected to begin filming this summer, but there’s still quite a lot of unknown quantities surrounding the project. The film does not currently have a director or any major confirmed plot details — but we do know one character who will be returning alongside Tom Holland’s Peter Parker/Spider-Man. As Holland revealed in a recent interview with The Phillippine Daily Inquirer (via IGN), Zendaya will be reprising her role as MJ.

“I’m super happy about it. We will be shooting Spider-Man 3 in July in Atlanta,” Holland explained, saying that the film’s story is “absolutely insane.”

 

While this is definitely a pleasant surprise, it was something that was safe to be assumed, especially as MJ and Peter developed a romantic relationship over the course of last year’s Spider-Man: Far From Home. The film saw Zendaya’s character taking on a much more prominent role, and it’s safe to assume that will continue over the third installment.
