Michelle Gonzales

"I don't know who he is. But I have my suspicions."

- Michelle on Spider-Man's identity.

Michelle Jones, commonly known as M.J., is a character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She is the Marvel Cinematic Universe's version of Mary Jane Watson. She is a student at Midtown High, Peter Parker's school. She is one of Peter's best friends, and after Liz Toomes leaves Peter, Michelle and Peter become lovers. She is a supporting protagonist in Spider-Man: Homecoming and the tritagonist in it's sequel Spider-Man: Far from Home.

She is portrayed by Zendaya, who also portrayed Rocky Blue in Shake it Up, Zoey Stevens in Zapped, K.C. Cooper in K.C. Undercover, and Meechee in Smallfoot.

Michelle is snarky and coy, but also kind and friendly. She often acts as the voice of reason, and she provides the troubled Peter with much-needed comfort and advice.

Michelle fell victim to Thanos' fingersnap, but then was brought back to life when Bruce Banner/Hulk undid the snap in 2023.
