Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse - Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

16. Mary Jane Watson

Spider Man Into The Spider Verse
Sony

Into the Spider-Verse marks the very first big screen appearance of Mary Jane Watson since 2007's Spider-Man 3. And the phrase "absence makes the heart grow fonder" could not be more true.

Granted, while MJ's big return was nice, she, like some of the previously mentioned characters on this list, wasn't given a whole lot to do. However, she is absolutely fantastic at making her time count.

From the heartfelt speech eulogizing the deceased Peter Parker, to an absolutely hilarious moment towards the end of the film in which she interacts with who she doesn't know is another version of Peter, MJ makes it abundantly clear why she's been such a beloved comic book character for so long.

She isn't always present, but her influence on Peter's journey is almost always is.
