With the recent confirmation from Shailene Woodley that she’ll no longer be appearing in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2, believing her scenes will be kept for the third instalment, Marc Webb later released a statement giving his reasons. However, due to Woodley’s hectic schedule, it became increasingly prominent that Sony and Columbia Pictures were looking at recasting the part of the redheaded future love-interest so not to disrupt their plans for the already announced dates for sequels THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 3 and 4.
Canadian actress Sarah Gadon, best known for her work in David Cronenberg duo A DANGEROUS METHOD and COSMOPOLIS, is now confirmed to be taking over the role from Woodley. It’s expected she’ll make her a appearance in the third film in series set to shoot late next year for a release on the 10th June 2016.
