"I've always been a big Andrew Garfield fan, I really like his work a lot," Dunst told Digital Spy when asked about the new Spider-Man.
"And I really like Emma. I really like that zombie movie she did a lot, Zombieland, so I'm sure they'll be really charming and great."

Dunst had previously said that she was happy to leave the franchise after Spider-Man 3 and that "it was time" to change the cast.
James Franco, who played Harry Osborn in Raimi's films, described the trend for remakes as "a weird phenomenon" but also added that he is "okay with the new one".
