Kirsten Dunst reveals nickname from Spider-Man. Kirsten Dunst has reflected on her experience of filming the Spider-Man movies. The 41-year-old actress has recalled being nicknamed "girly-girl" during the filming of 2002's Spider-Man. ”I mean..." she began in a new interview with Marie Claire. ”It was a joke, but on Spider-Man, they would call me 'girly-girl' sometimes on the walkie-talkie. 'We need girly-girl.’" The actress noted that although she didn't like the nickname, she felt powerless to defend herself. Kirsten told the outlet, "I never said anything," adding, "like, don't call me that.” According to Marie Claire, the Marie Antoinette star explained it took time for her to realise her self-worth as a young woman in Hollywood. ”You didn't say anything. You just took it," she said of being put down. Kirsten played Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man, 2004's Spider-Man 2 and 2007's Spider-Man 3 alongside Tobey Maguire, who portrayed the titular character. Elsewhere in the interview, Kirsten opened up about her recent two-year hiatus from acting. ”To be honest, that's been hard for me...because I need to feed myself.” "The hardest thing is being a mom and...not feeling like, I have nothing for myself. That's every mother-not just me. There's definitely less good roles for women my age.” Kirsten has two children, sons Ennis and James with her husband, Killers of the Flower Moon actor Jesse Plemons.
