Emma Stone will be going blond for her upcoming role in the next Spider-Man movie.

Stone will be playing Peter’s love interest Gwen Stacy. When it was first announced that Stone would be co-starring in Spider-Man, many a fan and website assumed that she would be playing Mary Jane, due to the typically red nature of her hair. When it was subsequently announced that Stone would be playing Gwen Stacy instead, many a fan wondered how a typically red-haired actress would fare as a blond (her natural hair color). Well, now we know.

Personally, I think Stone looks fantastic. When it was momentarily believed that she was going to play Mary Jane, and every Spider-Man fan was cheering, I was, in full disclosure, a bit disappointed. Though Emma Stone is beautiful, she isn’t conventionally beautiful like Mary Jane the super model.
