Some Fans Don’t Want Zendaya’s MJ in ‘Spider-Man 4’ – Vouching for Sweeney’s Black Cat Instead

After months of silence, we finally got the first information about ‘Spider-Man 4.’ Jon Watts stepped down as director, and Shang-Chi’s Destin Daniel Cretton was appointed. Fans quickly jumped on that train, considering how awesome the fight scenes from ‘Shang-Chi’ were.

The movie is expected to start filming in early 2025. Tom Holland and Zendaya have allegedly not yet signed the deal for a return, but it’s probably just a few small details that need to be taken care of. However, it seems that not all fans want Zendaya back in ‘Spider-Man 4’ as MJ.

Namely, after Deadline announced that ‘Spider-Man 4’ has a new director, some fans quickly stated that they simply do not want MJ back, for now. There were a variety of reasons for that.

Some fans simply loved how ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ ended and want some time for Peter to “rebuild himself”; some think it’s simply the time to move on. The majority of fans also agree that bringing MJ back so quickly will “water down” the consequences of ‘No Way Home’:

But, the most “likes” on the comment went to one fan who simply left a Black Cat gif in the comments, pointing out that he would rather see Black Cat (possibly Sydney Sweeney in the role, as she is the #1 rumor so far) as Peter’s new love interest:

And what about you? Would you like to see Peter get a new love interest in Sweeney’s Black Cat, or is Zendaya’s MJ a gold standard in the MCU? Let us know in the comments below! 👇
