Bryce Dallas Howard talked with MovieWeb recently about her work on SPIDER-MAN 3. In the film, Howard's character Gwen Stacy rivals M.J. for Peter Parker's affections, as he becomes overconfident and starts to neglect the people who care about him most.
Howard says she was most surprised by "the amount of time that was devoted to the complexity of the characters, rehearsals and how much effort the producers and obviously Sam put into making sure that this was a film with a lot of gravity to it. I just assumed our focus would be on CGI and the action. I was really delighted by that and I was also surprised by the fact that the set felt so intimate? It felt like we were making some kind of independent film. Everyone knew each other, it was almost like a family. When I saw the film finally, just a couple of days ago, I was like, oh my God!"
The actress goes on to note that "Sam, wasn't initially too excited about putting this character in the film. Then he warmed up to it figuring that the character would be introduced in this film, and then explored in later films if need be."
And in terms of how the film was different from her other projects Howard said, "Well, falling out of buildings. I loved the heightened realism of the dance sequence in the bar because... you don't get to do things like that. It felt like an old Hollywood musical. "
