No specific role is given but it's said Zendaya's Mary Jane Watson is taking a reduced role in the next Spider-Man movie and Gwen Stacy will be playing Peter Parker's love interest.

Another prominent scooper, Jeff Sneider of The Hot Mic podcast, expressed confidence that Zendaya’s screentime as MJ would be "severely reduced" due to the actress’ other filming commitments.
Alex Perez of The Cosmic Circus additionally contended that Spider-Man 4 is aiming to bring in Gwen Stacy to replace MJ as Peter moves into his college years:
" I heard she was being planned to be introduced as the new female lead for the trilogy a while back while Peter entered college and replace Zendaya’s MJ for a bit, but that was a while ago."
While the next Spider-Man sequel may or may not feature Black Cat or Gwen Stacy, either of whom could conceivably be played by Anya Taylor-Joy, Amy Pascal promised that the film would feature some well-loved female characters.
