DetailedSpider-Man 4fan art presents the best possible look for Zendaya’s MJ in herMarvel Cinematic Universereturn. Zendaya’s MJ is one of the most important characters inTom Holland’s Spider-Man trilogy. However,Spider-Man: No Way Homeended with MJ forgetting who Peter Parker was. That opened the door for her to be absent fromSpider-Man 4’s story; however, Zendaya is reportedly already working out a deal to return in the anticipated MCU film, and stunning art reimagines MJ’s look.
On Instagram,artist@alicexzgave Zendaya’s MJ red hair to make the MCU Spider-Man star look closer to her comic book counterpart.
As her nickname states, despite being mostly an original character, Zendaya’s Michelle Jones in the MCU is very clearly occupying the role that Mary Jane Watson plays in Peter Parker’s life in the comics. However, that is the limit to the characters' connection in the MCU, as Zendaya’s MJ is very different from the comics' Mary Jane. While the comic book character is more sociable and is an actress, the MCU’s MJ is socially awkward and turned to science.
The fan art is an homage to an iconic scene from the comics, Mary Jane’s “Face it tiger, you just hit the jackpot!”
AfterSpider-Man: No Way Homeset up a new chapter for the wall-crawler’s franchise, Zendaya’s MJ could return with a more outgoing personality and red hair, with Marvel making her closer to the comics' Mary Jane, who should not appear infuture MCU movies.
Why MJ & Ned Need To Return To The MCU
Spider-Man: No Way Homewas the epic trilogy finale that the hero deserved. It completely changed Spider-Man’s life in the MCU, with Aunt May being killed by Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin and Doctor Strange’s spell saving the day, but making everyone forget who Peter Parker was. Now, Tom Holland’s Peter is all alone, with the character making a decision at the end ofNo Way Homenot to tell Zendaya’s MJ or Jacob Batalon’s Ned Leeds of their history, hoping to keep them safe by distancing himself from his friends.
Spider-Man 4 Theory Explains How The MCU Movie Could Be Street-Level & Include The Multiverse Simultaneously
A new MCU Spider-Man 4 theory answers how Tom Holland’s next solo movie could have the perfect balance between a street-level and multiversal story.
That is an utterly sad note to end the friendship Peter, MJ, and Ned shared on. The MCU’s Spider-Man deserves more than to be forgotten by his friends and never see them again. With Zendaya reportedly closing a deal to return forSpider-Man 4, it is likely that Batalon will also be involved as Ned Leeds. The characters would not need to play a major role in the film as they did in Holland’s previous solo entries. Instead,Spider-Man 4could use them sparingly, perhaps with Peter looking at them from afar, hoping to one day be with his friends.
Another trilogy for Holland as Spider-Man has yet to be confirmed.
A formal reunion between the trio could be saved forSpider-Man 5. While another trilogy for Holland as Spider-Man has yet to be confirmed, based on the hero’s popularity, the huge box office success Holland’s version has had, and the actor only being 28, the MCU’s Spider-Man should get plenty of new adventures in the future. AfterSpider-Man 4presents a new status quo for the hero, Peter Parker can slowly find his way back to Zendaya’s MJ and Batalon’s Ned, reuniting with their friends and revealing what happened with Doctor Strange’s spell and everything.
