- ―Miss Brant[src]
Betty Brant is J. Jonah Jameson's secretary at the Daily Bugle. She is a friend of Peter Parker.
Biography
Spider-Man
As one of the Bugle's staff and J. Jonah Jameson's secretary, Betty is usually seen either passing on messages to Jonah or receiving curt orders from him.
Spider-Man 2
While she never dates Peter, a subtle attraction to him is apparent.
Spider-Man 3
Betty seems to have found a way of getting her comeuppance on her boss, by being tasked by his wife to inform him to avoid getting agitated and to remember to take his numerous medications, which she does to comic effect through a loud buzzer/intercom; later, she is hit on by Eddie Brock, (with whom she wants nothing to do) and a symbiote-influenced Peter Parker (to whom she is visibly attracted), only to be interrupted by Jameson, who says "That's not the position I hired you for!".
Relationships

Behind the scenes
- As Betty Brant receded into the background in the comics in favor of other love interests, particularly Mary Jane Watson, she appears as a much more minor character, such as in the feature film series as played by Elizabeth Banks, and reappears in Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3.
- Elizabeth Banks stated that she first auditioned for the role of Mary Jane Watson before taking the role of Betty Brant.
