Box Office: Sony’s ‘Madame Web‘ grossed an estimated $6.05M domestically on its opening day, which was Valentine’s Day Wednesday, from 4,013 locations, as confirmed by The Numbers.
Despite the lowest rating on Rotten Tomatoes, ‘Madame Web’ targets a $25 million opening weekend at the domestic box office, having been made on an $80 million budget.
Directed by S. J. Clarkson from a screenplay by Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama. The film is the sixth installment in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe (SSU). The film stars Dakota Johnson as Madame Web, Sydney Sweeney as Julia Cornwall, Celeste O’Connor, and Isabela Merced, Tahar Rahim as Ezekiel Sims, Emma Roberts, Mike Epps, Adam Scott, and Zosia Mamet.
According to the film’s plot: Meanwhile, in another universe… In a switch from the typical genre, Madame Web tells the standalone origin story of one of Marvel’s most enigmatic heroines. The suspense-driven thriller stars 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.
Is ‘Madame Web’ Worth Watching?
According to reports, ‘Madame Web’ is an embarrassing mess. Talented stars wasted on probably the worst comic book movie I have ever seen. Filled with atrocious dialogue, awkward editing, and an all-around laughable structure, I sat there baffled, scene by scene.
‘Madame Web’ is now playing in theaters.
