Mary Jane Cut: Woodley’s Dream Spider-Man Moment That Didn’t Make It
Shailene Woodley says in SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations that she filmed about three Mary Jane scenes opposite Andrew Garfield for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but a year later learned her role was cut as producers shifted focus to Gwen Stacy and other characters. Producers said the Mary Jane storyline was too large for the 2014 film, with a script reportedly spanning 148 pages, and Woodley described Mary Jane as her dream role, noting the confusion around the decision and its ultimate truth.
