Sony just dropped the first official posters for Madame Web, the studio’s latest Spider-Man-based film that does not include Spider-Man. Joining the ranks of Venom, Morbius, and the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, Madame Web stars Dakota Johnson as the titular character who finds herself putting together a team of spidery-heroines including Sydney Sweeney‘s Spider-Woman. Adam Scott is also along for the ride in a potentially very interesting role.
With the release of Madame Web just two months away, Sony unveiled two posters for the movie, and well, the reactions on social media have been… strong. Let’s go with strong.
You can see the posters below:

They would've had a proper graphic designer but he was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died. https://t.co/yca0n3HBHg

Here’s the official synopsis:
“Meanwhile, in another universe…” In a switch from the typical genre, Madame Web tells the standalone origin story of one of Marvel publishing’s most enigmatic heroines. The suspense-driven thriller stars Dakota Johnson as Cassandra Webb, a paramedic in Manhattan who may have clairvoyant abilities. Forced to confront revelations about her past, she forges a relationship with three young women destined for powerful futures… if they can all survive a deadly present.
Madame Web connects all the webs on February 14, 2024.
