It seems that Gwen Stacey (played by Emma Stone) has really captured the hearts of fans following reports that Sony is going to expand her character's exposure and turn it into a solo movie franchise.

It is speculated that Stone could come back for the role in the Amazing Spider-Man franchise with a spin-off character, Spider-Gwen. According to ComicBook, Spider-Gwen has already made a name in the Spider-Man pop culture. Since fans are warmly embracing this new character, it is likely that Sony will incorporate Spider-Gwen in the film.

Spider-Gwen is from an alternative universe. This character has also been shown in this year's comic con in New York. Even mainstream media has already acknowledged her character.

However, there is no official confirmation yet on whether the "female-led-spin-off" announced my Sony a few months back is going to be Spider-Gwen. Nonetheless, Stone would be the perfect fit for the character as she has already established her connection with Andrew Garfield (Spider-Man and real-life boyfriend) on screen.

ComicBook also stated that Stone playing the role has a big factor in the creation of the spin-off film.

"Of course, the biggest factor in creating a Spider-Gwen movie hasn't much to do with the character at all (sorry, comic fans). Actress Emma Stone is the real golden goose here. With Gwen already established in their Spider-Man universe, Sony must see their chance at a female-led franchise with a super-star actress already built in," according to ComicBook.

"A mainstream moviegoer would be far more tempted to see a female superhero film with Emma Stone in a familiar role than an unfamiliar character, like Jessica Drew or Black Cat," the site added.

As for the ways on how they could bring her back, Screenrant hinted, "There's a whole plotline that could happen that may bring her back."

The female-led-spin-off is set for a 2017 release.
