It's the latest in Sony's attempt to make Spider-Man movies without

Spider-Man! Where the others failed though, this one spectacularly

fails! Nostalgia Critic takes a look at Madame Web.

Madame Web is a 2024 American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics

character of the same name. Produced by Columbia Pictures and Di

Bonaventura Pictures in association with Marvel Entertainment and TSG

Entertainment, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing, it is the

fourth film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU). Directed by S. J.

Clarkson from a screenplay she co-wrote with Claire Parker and the

writing team of Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless, it stars Dakota Johnson

in the title role, alongside Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, Celeste

O'Connor, Tahar Rahim, Mike Epps, Emma Roberts, and Adam Scott. In the

film, the origin story of Cassie Webb (Johnson) is explored as she

confronts her past while trying to save three young women (Sweeney,

Merced, O'Connor) from Ezekiel Sims (Rahim), who wants to kill them

before they become Spider-Women in the future and kill him.
