Stephanie Tyler Jones, the face model of MJ in Marvel’s Spider-Man 1 and 2, has released a statement decrying stalking and harassment from players. A bunch of folks crossed boundaries last weekend, with one calling Jones’ workplace and demanding to speak to her, prompting a response from her and Insomniac Games.
Trolls previously attacked Spider-Man 2 intern over likeness to MJ
In a statement published on Instagram, Jones said that she appreciates the response to her role in Spider-Man games but is no longer an actively auditioning actor or model. However, some fans continue to cross the line, making Jones feel “uncomfortable and unsafe.”
“The shoots I do now are purely a creative outlet for myself and a way to collaborate with friends I love,” part of Jones’ statement reads. “My skincare page is not for Spider-Man or MJ fans. Please respect that I am a human being trying to make a living just like you.”

Insomniac Games’ James Stevenson took to Twitter in Jones’ support, decrying doxxing and harassment.
Prior to this, trolls attacked a former intern at Insomniac Games just because she looked like MJ, labeling her a “self-insert.” Embarrassing and abhorrent, to say the least.
