Sydney Sweeney is set to join Sony’s Marvel Universe of Characters after a successful year that includes leading parts in HBO’s The White Lotus and Euphoria. According to reports, Sydney Sweeney will star with Dakota Johnson in Sony Pictures’ Madame Web. The film will be directed by S.J. Clarkson. The script was written by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless, with an earlier draft written by Kerem Sanga.
Who Is Madame Web?
Madame Web was represented in the comics as an old woman with myasthenia gravis who was tethered to a life-support system that resembled a spider web. Madame Web never actively fought any villains due to her age and sick condition.
As a result, insiders say it’s likely the project will morph into something different. She is essentially Sony’s equivalent of Doctor Strange, according to insiders, because of her psychic sensory abilities. Sweeney’s role in the film is yet unknown.
With Venom: Let There Be Carnage grossing over $500 million globally and Spider-Man: No Way Home grossing $1.85 billion worldwide, Sony is on a roll.
What are fans’ favorite pictures of Sydney Sweeney?
Sydney Sweeney not only starred in one of the year’s hottest programs, Euphoria (HBO recently declared it is the network’s second most-watched show behind only Game of Thrones), but she was also one of the season’s great winners, swiftly going to the top of every major studio’s list of young emerging talents.
Sydney Sweeney had been considering numerous offers in recent weeks, according to sources, but the chance to work with Johnson in what would be the first female-centric picture in the franchise was too good to pass up.
Sydney Sweeney has had a busy year, which began with her scene-stealing performance in another great HBO series, White Lotus. She has prominent parts in the Amazon movies The Voyeurs and Blumhouse’s Nocturne. She is now starring alongside Simon Rex and Halsey in Tony Tost’s National Anthem.
