Spider-Man: Homecoming - 12 Biggest Questions It Leaves Unanswered

3. MJ?

Is she? Isn't she? The were persistent rumours from the very beginning that the character played by Zendaya in Homecoming - known only as Michelle - was actually Mary Jane Watson, famous love interest of Peter Parker.

That turned out not to be the case, as Michelle is just Michelle... except, well, she's also MJ, saying at the end of the movie that's what her friends call her.

It's a nice moment, and one that offers a nod to the comics but keeps Michelle as her own character too. But could there be anything more to it, either in terms of Mary Jane, or Michelle as a love interest for the future. Talking to IGN, Kevin Feige said:

"Well, we never even looked at it as a big reveal necessarily but more of just a fun homage to his past adventures and his past love. She's not Mary Jane Watson. She never was Mary Jane Watson. She was always this new high school character, Michelle, who we know there's an 'M' in Michelle and an 'M' in Mary. [laughs] So we're so clever and we thought, 'Wouldn't it be neat if her initials were MJ?'

"She's not Mary-Jane Watson. Is she going to date Peter? Are they going to fall in love? She seems to be intrigued with him. There's a nice chemistry there. Who knows what will happen in the future films?"

That's at least some clarification, although it does still leave big question marks over the future of this character, and the potential for ever seeing the real MJ appear in this universe.
