Emma Stone To Play 'Mary Jane Watson', Studio Searches For 'Gwen Stacy'

We reported before that Emma Stone's name was being added to the list for the female lead in Marc Webb's 3D reboot of the Spider-Man franchise.

Now according to Deadline, Sony Pictures Entertainment will imminently offer the role of Mary Jane Watson to Emma Stone, who starred for the studio in "Zombieland" and "Easy A."

That leaves the four other actresses for the role of Gwen Stacy. Those contenders are Glee's Dianna Agron, Mia Wasikowska, Georgina Haig and Dominique McElligott. Stacy is a plum part for the first installment of the 3D Marc Webb-directed reboot of Spider-Man, because she is the first love interest of the high school-aged Peter Parker, played by Andrew Garfield.
