Sony's Madame Web movie

Emma Roberts is considering throwing her career away:

To be honest the only thing I have ever liked Emma Roberts in was the Nancy Drew movie she did years ago.

The only real legs Sony could get out of turning their licensing of Spider-Man as an I.P. into a "universe" would be a solid Spidey trilogy, a Spidey 2099 trilogy (which if done like a Blade Runner flick could be amazing) and maybe punctuated with some luck from a "stretch" film like they got away with using Venom.

Having a bunch of bad guy movies coalesce into a Sinister Six film was always a ridiculous and awful idea.

Given Madame Web's position and connections in the comics, this could be kind of intriguing. I would definitely watch it, if only to see how they weave in the multiverse with her. (Anyone remember her part in the final arc of Spider-Man TAS?)

There's got to be something preventing Sony from doing that with respect to their deal with Disney/Marvel. Like, why in the world would they be doing a Morbius or a Madame Web movie when they could be doing Miles Morales movies as the "Sony Spider-Man"?

Simple. Miles doesn't have a huge cast of side character's and villains to work with! You could literally mine Peter's side character's and random villains for YEARS and never even scratch the surface of the full roster!

Yeah, but, You could do Venom vs Miles or anyone vs Miles. People would still watch it.

Enter the Spider-Verse did well enough for a couple sequels.

The Miles PS game did well enough, I think his an established enough character to fly solo.

Ideally I'd like to see Sony and Disney come to some kind of custody agreement. Where Disney can the film rights Peter Parker and Sony can do live action Miles. Keep the two universes separate (outside of multiverse).

I feel like there is untold hours and hours of boardroom conversations about just this between Sony and Marvel.

But yeah. There has to be things in whatever agreement they reached and then renewed at the 11th hour (remember the stories about Tom Holland calling Bob Iger drunkenly?) about what Sony can and can't do, as in if they still want to earn tons of cash from MCU Spider-Man stuff. Because surely Sony would be dumping out Miles Morales movies and Spider-Man 2099 movies maybe not before Venom, but certainly before they'd arrive at stuff like Morbius and Madame Web. Like, even if whatever they did with Morales and Spider-Man 2099 was clearly in another universe. Even that would surely be more profitable than either thing.

I really can't fathom who would want to be involved in a Sony Marvel movie that isn't Spider-Man. Did they not watch Venom 2 and Morbius before putting pen to paper? It's not going to be good.

Worst concept and use of I.P. spinoff for a movie ever.

"Really female driven" and "will revolutionize superhero industry dominated by masculinity."

Sure to flop harder than Morbius, in other words.

Revolutionize?

Didn't other movies already do that?

Maybe it would be more accurate to promote it as "Normalizing" a trend?

They can't wait to show us the "powerhouse of badass females."

Looks like something that will launch a new franchise of amazing story telling for wine moms and men who tell themselves that they are "enlightened". Just like the Marvels did!

-thumb's up-

The keys to the entire Spider-Man franchise and the best they can do is continue churning out movies about Spider-Man villains.
