Hailee Steinfeld recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter. During the interview, the idea of a live-action Gwen spin-off was brought up and not surprisingly, the Edge of Seventeen star admitted she would love to play Spider-Gwen in her own live-action movie.

She also discussed the difference in her portrayal of a live-action Spider-Gwen.

"I generally thought that you would make things bigger in animation, but in this film and with these characters, there’s a lot of importance on being grounded and being real and feeling authentic," Steinfeld said.

"There may have been a time where I felt the need to overcompensate because it wasn’t live-action," she added. "It wasn’t me doing the thing. So I felt like in order for you to feel it on the other end, I had to go bigger, but I very quickly realized that there’s no need for that."

Steinfeld continued, "With everything that’s going on and all the different animation styles and the music being such a huge part and the score being so moving, all I had to do was feel as real in the material as possible."

"So, would I deliver the lines differently in live-action?" she pondered. "That’s such an interesting thing."

"I imagine if they’re coming from the same place, it would feel similar, but with some physicality added in there, it would inherently be different," Steinfeld concluded.

We're loving the idea of Hailee Steinfeld playing the live-action Spider-Gwen. However, the Spider-Woman spin-off film has not yet been announced. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.

Hailee Steinfeld plays Gwen Stacy aka Spider-Woman in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which is currently screening in theaters worldwide.
