Shailene Woodley is getting into character—Mary Jane Watson, to be exact.

The Golden Globe–nominated actress was snapped on the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 sporting red hair for her role as Peter Parker/Spidey's longtime love interest.

The sequel marks MJ's reemergence since the franchise was rebooted last summer under director Marc Webb and saw the webslinger hook up with rival Gwen Stacy, played by Emma Stone.

And, as you can see by these new set photos, Andrew Garfield is once again suiting up as everyone's favorite neighborhood Spider-Man. This time, the wall crawler will be tackling a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), as well as the return of old pal and sometime adversary Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan).

Shooting is now under way in New York City, strangely enough the first time a Spider-Man movie has been filmed exclusively in the Marvel superhero's hometown.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 swings into theaters on May 2, 2014.
