The monumental success of Spider-Man: No Way Home may have fans wondering who might be showing up in the inevitable next film, now that the multiverse has blown the door wide open for more mixing of different movie universes. Featuring the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s version of Peter Parker, Tom Holland, No Way Home also brought in different characters from the previous live-action Spider-Man films. That notably included Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as their respective Spider-Men.
Back in 2007, Bryce Dallas Howard picked up her first Marvel role by appearing as Gwen Stacy in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 3. She would have likely returned for the planned sequel that never got made, but because that film was scrapped, Howard wound up saying goodbye to that character just as quickly as she had been cast. As other characters from Raimi’s Spider-Verse were featured in No Way Home, it’s hypothetically possible that Howard could reprise the role of Stacy at some point in the future.

If you were to ask Howard herself, she’d be happy to reprise the role. Speaking with People, the actress said how much fun she had on that project, making it an easy decision to revisit Gwen Stacy if that’s a call that ever comes in. With that said, Howard says she sees Emma Stone as the definitive version of Gwen after starring with Garfield in two Amazing Spider-Man movies.

Bryce Dallas Howard went on to name the other roles she had in mind if she could revisit any of her previous characters. She was quick to name her role from the M. Night Shyamalan movie The Village along with the part she played in an episode of Black Mirror. However, her Jurassic World franchise role seems to be the part that stands out the most for Howard at this stage of her career.
Howard will next appear in the upcoming Apple TV+ movie Argylle alongside Henry Cavill, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, John Cena, Catherine O’Hara, Ariana DeBose, and Samuel L. Jackson.
