Kirsten Dunst Says She's “In” For Spider-Man 4

Tobey Maguire: When MTV asked Kirsten Dunst if she would be returning for Spider-Man 4, the actress responded “I'm in.” Which sounds like a done deal if you ask me. But when pressed if she officially signed on to return, the actress changed her tone, “I'm not saying anything, I know there's rumors…”

This is certainly a change in tone from last year when Dunst was expressing disinterest in returning for more sequels, insisting she wouldn't even consider the possibility if Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire weren't involved. “Audiences aren't stupid. It'd be a big flop without me, Tobey, or Sam,” Dunst told EW. But I guess its now sounding more and more like both Tobey and Sam will also return, and that two sequels will be shot back to back. If I were Raimi, I would kill Mary Jane off in a Empire Strikes Back type cliffhanger. Read full story at /Film

Kirsten Dunst Says She’s “In” For “Spider-Man 4″
You can’t exactly call it an official confirmation, but when asked by MTV about her Spider-Man 4 status, Kirsten Dunst said, “I’m in.” She quickly back-tracked on that though, telling them, “I’m not saying anything, I know there’s rumors…” Those rumors, of course, being fueled by fans less than satisfied with the actress’ less-than-impressive Mary Jane. Still, the Internet spit out a lot of hate for Tobey Maguire and Sam Raimi too, and look what those guys ended

Kirsten Dunst is "In" for 'Spider-Man 4'...Or is She?
A quick show of hands: Who really cares if Kirsten Dunst comes back for Spider-Man 4? Personally, I was done with her somewhere in the middle of Spidey 2, and I thought she was outclassed by Bryce Dallas Howard's Gwen Stacy in the miserable third installment. But with Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire back on board, the question does seem rather natural. So when Dunst reported to MTV that, "I'm in," that obviously meant she'd have to field follow-ups, which she refused to do. "

Kirsten Dunst in ‘Spider-Man 4’?
At this stage, it’s just one of those rumors again. MTV recently talked to Kirsten Dunst about her new flick “How to Lose Friends & Alienate People,” and they obviously couldn’t resist asking about her potential involvement in “Spider-Man 4.” Her response, however, was not among the clearest. “I’m in,” she said first, before playing it safer by adding, “I’m not saying anything, I know there’s rumors…” Huh? Definitely leaves me puzzled. So there you go, maybe she wants to st

MTV got to the issue when they quizzed her on the possibility of seeing her Snaggletooth smile sharing the screen with a webslinger again: “I’m in,” said the

But Soft, Yon Kenneth Branagh Doth Direct ‘Thor’
Thou has Thor, if thou hast Thor...Photo: Getty ImagesEntire Internet Says WTF: Sorry D.J. Caruso, but it looks like you might not get to cast Shia LaBeouf in Thor, because that dubious honor belongs to, uh, Kenneth Branagh? Best known for directing a bunch of Shakespeare (Hamlet, Henry V), and best loved by us for helming 1991's Dead Again, he seems like an odd choice who pretty much guarantees the movie will be a historical epic. But is this really any stranger than studios plucking one-time indie di

Since the fourth and fifth movie are supposedly filming back-to-back for six months, Tobey wanted early mornings and evenings off so he could spend time with Ruby — so sweet, but no surprise coming from a guy who brou
