Madame Web’s release was a colossal disаster, akin to the notorious reception of Cats. Critics lambasted it as “dumb and schlocky,” an “unholy mess,” and a “janky rip-off.”
Its abysmal box office performance solidified its failure as the lowest-grossing Spider-Man-related film of the century. The film’s flop dashed any hopes of a franchise and tarnished the careers of those involved.Despite warnings, Dakota Johnson approached the press tour with a nonchalant demeanor, distancing herself from the film’s shortcomings. Johnson’s candid remarks about the challenges of big-budget filmmaking fueled speculation about her dissatisfaction. She openly admitted to not having seen the film and displayed a lack of interest in Marvel movies.Criticism of the film’s trailer prompted defensive responses from Johnson, but she found solace in unrelated discussions during interviews. Now that the promotional tour has ended, Johnson has moved on from Madame Web’s failure.However, if the film miraculously turns a profit, audiences may witness another round of spirited promotion from Johnson for a potential sequel.
