Dakota Johnson is negotiating the role of Madame Web in the spin-off of “Spider-Man”

Will Dakota Johnson be Madame Web in the Spider-Man spin-off? According to Deadline in any case, talks are underway so that the actress of Fifty Shades of Gray and of Suspiria interprets this female character on which Sony officials place high hopes.

A question arises: if Dakota Johnson becomes Madame Web, the character who appeared in a Spider-Man comic in 1980, will he remain the same? Indeed, in the comics, the superheroine is represented as a blind and paralyzed old woman, connected to a survival system that looks like a spider’s web and she fights by thought. According to the publication, if the role is entrusted to the 32-year-old actress, it would not be to age her and confine her to an almost passive role.

On the short list

Sony has long been looking for an actress who will be the right one to play this character, which opens up the Marvel universe to a strong female role. Over the tests with actresses, it is for the moment Dakota Johnson who stands out as the favorite.

The film will be directed by the British SJ Clarkson, with a busy career and who has already rubbed shoulders with the Marvel universe by directing and producing The Defenders and Jessica Jones.
