Kirsten Dunst, as Mary Jane Watson, is the latest to sign back onto the franchise for “Spider-Man 4.” The star will rejoin director Sam Raimi and star Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker’s love interest in the latest installment in the popular superhero franchise, which is slated for May 6, 2011. However, don’t expect wedding bells for Mary Jane and Peter, Black told The New York Post. At the end of “Spider-Man 3,” the two had an emotional, but although very ambiguous, reunion after the film’s events drove the lovers apart.
Additionally, Black hinted at the film’s villain, shooting down online rumors that pegged comic book character Morbius, the Living Vampire, as the latest member of Spidey’s nemeses. Instead, the producer told the Post that the villain had a significant connection to the Big Apple. “We’re just coming up with who the villain is now,” he said. “We’ll be shooting in New York again. Trust me, people will appreciate who we pick, because it’ll be a big part of New York.” So gear up for another chapter of everyone's friendly neighborhood Spiderman.
