In the time since then, of course, Divergent‘s sequels have been greenlit and follow-up interviews have suggested that Woodley could pull out of the Spider-Man franchise altogether, since she says working on two massive summer tentpole franchises would be nearly impossible from a logistical point of view (actors have been known to do it, but generally not if they’re the central lead in one of the franchises).
When The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was shooting, still photos leaked that showed Woodley’s Mary Jane Watson sharing scenes with both Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker and Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy. Fans were not kind to the actress, with a lot of the online chatter centering around the fact that she didn’t look like a supermodel (which MJ is in the comics) next to the “girl next door” Gwen Stacy, given how glamorous Stone is.
