Spider-Man has joined the Disney-owned Marvel Cinematic Universe, however a number of supporting characters from the Spider-Man comics are nonetheless a part of the so-called Sony Spider-Man Universe. What this complicated flip of occasions means is that Sony movies like Venom and Morbius might function Spider-Man-like superheroes and supervillains, however they do not function Spidey himself. Two extra SSU movies might be launched later this 12 months, Venom 3 and Kraven the Hunter. In the meantime, Madame Internet stars Dakota Johnson because the aptly named Cassandra Webb, a New York paramedic who beneficial properties the flexibility to see into the long run. This places her at odds with a Spider-Man-like villain (Tahar Rahim) who tries to kill three Spider-Man-like girls (Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor and Isabela Merced). Let’s hope the movie is extra profitable than the primary trailer, which turned notorious for one clunky line of dialogue: “He was with my mom within the Amazon when she was researching spiders, proper earlier than she died.”
