Sony’s upcoming Madame Web movie has taken a big step forward as they’ve cast their lead/title character!
On the heels of Spider-Man: No Way Home‘s continued (and historic) success, Sony is really pushing to get their other Spidey-Marvel projects moving. While we’ve known about the Madame Web movie for a little bit now, today brings word of actual casting.
According to Deadline, Dakota Johnson is in final talks to play Madame Web herself! Considering the fact the original Madame Web didn’t do any actual crime-fighting, I’m betting Johnson will be portraying Julia Carpenter, who was the SECOND Madame Web.
I’ve always loved Madame Web, and I can’t exactly say why. Something about the character has always hooked me, and with all the multiverse shenanigans she gets up to, there’s a lot of potential for fun times with this movie/story.
No word yet on when the movie will release, or even begin filming, but things are finally starting to come together!
