The jet-setting Spider-man 3 cast takes on Madrid, Spain at Hotel Santo Mauro on Wednesday. Co-stars Kirsten Dunst and James Franco attend the photocall.

Dunst on Spider-Man 4: “I would only do it with Sam (Raimi) and Tobey (Maguire). You can’t do that to the fans one. You can’t do that to each other; we’re a team and we’ve grown up together now and what makes this movie special is our collaboration together on it. I wouldn’t do it without Sam or Tobey. We never felt like it was really an end anyway. I do feel like we ended a chapter with this film. I think this book is closed and now we’ll approach it in another way that will refresh all of us.”

Spider-man 3 opens in theaters nationwide on May 4.
