The suit, which features a shiny red design, has sparked considerable discussion online. Subsequent images and a poster have also circulated, rousing fan interest in the movie's February 16, 2024 release.
Madame Web, which stars Dakota Johnson in the lead role and is directed by S.J. Clarkson, will explore the origin story of the eponymous clairvoyant mutant character from Marvel comics. The film's debut trailer has already been released, showcasing a star-studded cast that includes Sydney Sweeney, Tahar Rahim, and others. Notably, the movie will portray Madame Web before she becomes wheelchair-bound, as commonly depicted in the comics. Sony's slate of Spider-Man-related releases also includes 'Kraven the Hunter', 'Venom 3', 'El Muerto', and 'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse' on the horizon.
The Madame Web trailer notably spawned a meme based on a line about Amazon spider research, reflecting the online community's engagement with new content in humorous ways. 'Madame Web' joins a growing list of expansions to Sony's Spider-Man cinematic universe following the 2022 release of 'Morbius' starring Jared Leto.
When is Madame Web being released?Madame Web is scheduled to be released in theaters on February 16, 2024.
Madame Web's character, created by writer Denny O'Neil and artist John Romita Jr., first appeared in 'The Amazing Spider-Man' #210 in 1980. The character, whose real name is Cassandra Webb, is known for her psychic sensory powers, including precognition and clairvoyance. She has been both an ally and mentor figure to various Spider-Women and heroes within the Spider-Man universe. Intriguingly, her abilities are not a result of a spider bite but rather her mutant genetics. The upcoming film adaptation represents a significant development for the character, foraying into her backstory and connections within the broader Spider-Man lore.
