Turns out Shailene Woodley won't be in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 as Mary Jane!

It appears that some things have been shaken up on the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The anticipated character Mary Jane Watson will no longer be appearing in the film! Actress Shailene Woodley filmed a few short scenes on set but it has been revealed that director Marc Webb has decided to push the entrance of the character to the third film. 

 

When she was questioned about the news Woodley said,

"Of course I'm bummed. But I am a firm believer in everything happening for a specific reason...Based on the proposed plot, I completely understand the need for holding off on introducing [Mary Jane] until the next film."

Marc Webb took a moment to explain his decision as well:

"I made a creative decision to streamline the story and focus on Peter and Gwen and their relationship. Shailene is an incredibly talented actress and while we only shot a few scenes with Mary Jane, we all love working with her."

If I had to take a guess I would say that Woodley's scenes will go no further than the "deleted scenes" and that when the time comes for Mary Jane to appear in the third film that she will shoot all new scenes.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will swing into theaters on May 2, 2014.
