(That title’s grammar is bugging me…but what the hell, I’m sleepy)

As the title says, Marvel comics question…in-story, what movies has actress Mary-Jane Watson (Aka Mary-Jane Watson-Parker) starred in?

Any continuity is fair game, as are direct-to-video or TV movies.

I seem to recall that she’s done at LEAST some “B” movies, and indeed found a reference to her playing DTV superheroine “Mavella” in the Spider-Man comic strip, but nothing specific after that.

Can anyone enlighten me?

In the regular comics (no ultimates or reboots or anything), I don’t recall what movies she may have been in, but Mary Jane Watson Parker (as was her name at the time) starred for quite a while on the soap opera Secret Hospital.

Thread titles can be a real bastard. If the SDMB-Lords let you have do-overs maybe ask for:
