Wednesday Fans Prove Emma Myers Would Be the Perfect Spider-Gwen
After watching Wednesday, Marvel fans want to see star Emma Myers cast as Spider-Gwen in a future live-action project.
While most of the Netflix series' glowing reviews have focused on Jenna Ortega's lead performance as the title character, Wednesday Addams, Myers has received some attention for her breakout role as Wednesday's colorful werewolf roommate/friend, Enid Sinclair.
With her shoulder-length, purple-streaked blonde hair, some fans have drawn comparisons between Myers' Enid and Marvel Comics' superhero Gwen Stacy/Spider-Gwen. They have also pointed out that Myers herself has stated that she would love to portray Spider-Gwen in live-action, with many hoping their tweets of support can turn her dream casting into a reality.
Created by Jason Latour and Robbi Rodriquez, Gwen Stacy/Ghost-Spider (formerly Spider-Gwen) is a superhero from Earth-65 who was bitten by the radioactive spider that transformed Peter Parker into Spider-Man in the main Marvel Comics universe.
The character first appeared in Edge of Spider-Verse #2 (2014) before headlining her own ongoing series, Spider-Gwen, in 2015. Spider-Gwen is voiced by Hailee Steinfeld in the 2018 animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and its upcoming sequels Across the Spider-Verse (2023) and Beyond the Spider-Verse (2024).
