Kirsten Dunst has said that The Amazing Spider-Man leads Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone will be "charming and great" in the movie. The Melancholia actress played Mary Jane in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy alongside Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker, but both actors have been replaced for the series reboot.

"I've always been a big Andrew Garfield fan, I really like his work a lot," Dunst told Digital Spy when asked about the new Spider-Man. "And I really like Emma. I really like that zombie movie she did a lot, Zombieland, so I'm sure they'll be really charming and great."
Dunst had previously said that she was happy to leave the franchise after Spider-Man 3 and that "it was time" to change the cast. James Franco, who played Harry Osborn in Raimi's films, described the trend for remakes as "a weird phenomenon" but also added that he is "okay with the new one".
