Sony’s Spider-Verse keeps getting bigger, and Madame Webb is next on their list of characters to add to this branching cinematic world. The response to Sony’s attempts to make a cinematic universe out of Spider-Man characters has been lukewarm, except for the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies connected to the MCU. The conclusion of No Way Home, which comes out in 2021, was the studio’s biggest hit. Tom Hardy’s movie Venom, which came out in 2018, was a massive success with much help from China. It laid the groundwork for Sony’s world. Even though there was a plague, Venom: Let There Be Carnage built on the success of its predecessor. On the other hand, Jared Leto’s Morbius got into some trouble and was a critical and financial failure.
But Sony still needs to be finished. A new Kraven, the Hunter movie with Aaron Taylor Johnson, is coming out this year, and both Venom 3 and El Muerto are in the works. With Madame Web, Sony’s Spider-Man movies will finally use a character from the books who isn’t a bad guy. They want to change things up. Madame Web is a fascinating character from the Spider-Man section of Marvel Comics. She is a mutant with telepathic and future-predicting powers and is tied to a spider-web-like chair that takes care of all her body’s needs because of her health problems. Fans are excited about the film’s great cast, which includes Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney in the lead parts. If you’re also interested, here’s what we know about this new Spider-Verse movie.

Madame Web Release Date?
Madame Web was meant to come out on July 7, 2023, but Sony has moved the date to October 6, 2023. Sony put the movie off for the third and (hopefully) last time. Madame Web will now come out on February 16, 2024. The film will try to take advantage of Valentine’s weekend, which has been suitable for comic book movies like Deadpool and Black Panther. With a good cast, the film could also be a good choice for Galentine’s night out.
Madame Web Trailer?
The release date for Madame Web is still quite far out, and Sony is yet to start rolling out its marketing campaign for the film, with no word yet on an official trailer. All we have seen from the movie are set photos that leaked while filming in New York City. The images give us a look at the film’s main cast, including Dakota Johnson in what appears to be her Madame Web costume, the same costume Julia Carpenter sports in the comics. The set photos also indicate that the film is set somewhere in the early 2000s, with billboards promoting the 3G network and Beyoncé’s debut album seen in the background.
What Is The Plot Of Madame Web?
A lot of Madame Web’s story is still a secret, and neither the company nor the people who made it have said anything about it. Madame Web will be the first female-led superhero movie in Sony’s Spider-Verse. In Marvel Comics, Madame Web is the alias of Cassandra Webb, a woman from Salem, Oregon, who was born blind and had a medical condition called myasthenia gravis, which made her weak but also helped her develop psychic abilities and clairvoyance. In the books, she is known for being close to Jessica Drew and Julia Carpenter, both Spider-women. She usually helps them out with her skills.
But she leaked pictures from the set show that Dakota Johnson is wearing Julia Carpenter’s famous Madame Web costume. Carpenter played Madame Web after Cassandra gave her her psychic powers before she died. This change will also make sense since Dakota Johnson is still in her 30s, and the original Madame Web is usually a very older woman in the comics. But there are also reports that Sydney Sweeney will play Julia Carpenter in the movie. We can only wait and see what kind of story the writers create.
Who is the Director of Madame Web?
British director S.J. Clarkson, who has worked on many popular TV shows like Succession, Jessica Jones, Heroes, House, and Dexter, will be in charge of the film, which will be her first time directing a full-length movie. The movie’s story was written by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless, who also wrote Morbius. Karem Sanga (First Girl I Loved) wrote the first draft. Leigh Folsom Boyd, the director of No Way Home, and Mauro Fiore, a cinematographer, are also working on Madame Web. Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Bumblebee) is in charge of making the movie. Adam Merims (King Richard) is the film’s Executive Producer, and Palak Patel (The Gray Man) is in charge of the film’s development.
