Emma Roberts is set to make her Marvel debut in Sony's newest spider-verse film, 'Madame Web'.
Madame Web has caught another big name to add to its star-studded cast. Scream queen Emma Roberts will make her Marvel debut as she has boarded the ensemble in an unknown role, according to Deadline. She joins the film's star Dakota Johnson, along with Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor, Isabela Merced, and Tahar Rahim.
Madame Web is believed to be an origin story for one of Spider-Man's mentors who, at least in the comics and in the cartoon, never actively fights anyone herself. Throughout her depictions, she's shown as an elderly woman suffering from myasthenia gravis, leaving her hooked up to a "web" of life support machines. However, her years of experience and clairvoyant abilities were a boon to Spider-Man.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY S.J. Clarkson will direct the film from a script written by Morbius scribes Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless. A previous draft of the film was also written by Kerem Sanga. Since their last casting for Madame Web, Sony's hot streak has started to cool somewhat thanks to the Jared Leto-led vampire superhero flick bombing at the box office not once, but twice all thanks to the power of memes.
Roberts has a slew of films on the way in the near future with her just finishing production on the rom-com About Fate. She's best known for her roles in horror, however, becoming a mainstay on American Horror Story for several seasons while also appearing in Scream Queens for FOX. On the film side, she appeared in Scream 4, and she has the upcoming horror film Abandoned to look forward to which features her alongside Michael Shannon and John Gallagher Jr.
