Kirsten Dunst admitted that she received much less male actors for Spider-Man 
Hollywood actress Kirsten Dunst said that participation in the filming of “Spider-Man” she received much less than the leading role of Tobey Maguire. She told The Independent about this.
In an interview, Dunst admitted that despite the importance of the role of Mary Jane in the trilogy of Sam Raimi, she felt that she “fell short” of Maguire, because he was paid much more. The actress did not name specific amounts of fees.
“I was so young when I played in Spider-Man. I thought: “Wow, they pay me a lot of money!” But men were definitely paid more, “she told Variety back in 2017.
