The film was panned by critics upon its release in February, and didn't fare much better with audiences as it only grossed $100 million worldwide against a rumoured production budget of $80 million, leaving the future of the franchise unclear.
“Madame Web” was widely panned by film critics earlier this year and it flopped at the box office, where it still hasn't crossed the $100 million mark worldwide.
Madame Web has been prematurely pulled from theaters and is ending its domestic box office run with $43M. The film only spent 4 weeks in theaters. Welp, it's no MORBIUS. SHOCKER!!!
Madame Web is one of the worst superhero movies ever made! It has terrible writing, characters, action setpieces and even acting. Dakota Johnson is so dull and boring as the main lead but this is probably down to the terrible script.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 flopped. Spider-Man: Homecoming hit. But which has grossed the most money? By now, we've all been well schooled in how the Spider-Man movie franchise has played out.
The ending clearly hoped to set up a franchise starring Dakota Johnson, Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, Celeste O'Connor as a crime-fighting team. But unfortunately, Madame Web flopped in theaters, and there's very little chance that there will be a sequel.
If you thought “Morbius” was a flop, you're not gonna wanna watch “Madame Web.” The writing was cheesy, the timeline was hard to follow, the movie was too fast-paced and the acting was awful. Directed by S.J Clarkson and starring Dakota Johnson, “Madame Web” has got to be one of Marvel's worst-written films so far.
That's a much safer choice, he says, since she recently suffered a heart attack—and also because Pepsi is funding the entire movie. Pepsi-owned sister sodas make appearances too: Cassie and Ben sip on Mountain Dews as they chill in the break room, during what is maybe the movie's most obnoxious scene.
Marketing was reported to be 60 million and the film may have actually cost 100M but even if we go with 80+60M then the movie still lost around 90M, which, as you said, is still less than what The Marvels lost.
Madame Web's financial failure makes the MCU's box office woes look less startling. Its box office was just shy of $98 million, putting it far below even the worst-performing Marvel Cinematic Universe films. The MCU's lowest-grossing film is currently The Marvels, with a box office haul of almost $200 million.
“To me, that film was a building block, it's what allowed me to build a relationship with Sony,” Sweeney told the publication. “Without doing 'Madame Web' I wouldn't have a relationship with the decision-makers over there. Everything in my career I do not just for that story, but strategic business decisions.
Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are engaged and have been for a while, according to multiple outlets. Review the Coldplay singer and the actress's romance.
How much was Dakota Johnson paid for Fifty Shades of Grey?
Despite all the hype surrounding the first film, Dakota reportedly took home $250,000 for Fifty Shades of Grey. Which is obviously a lot of money in the world of, well, normal people—but it's a pretty small salary for an A-list star. (By comparison, Jennifer Lawrence made $25 million for her role in Don't Look Up.)
The reviews were lousy, with critics calling the movie “a genuine Chernobyl-level disaster” that is “full of bad dialogue delivered badly.” The box office numbers were somehow worse, landing “Madame Web” among the lowest ticket sales ever for a superhero movie.
Madame Web is a superhero movie about someone with precognitive powers: To the extent that you can actually understand what her powers are, it's that she can see the future and in some cases act to stop terrible events from happening.
Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man does not appear in any way in Madame Web. The other live-action Spider-Men, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland also do not appear. Instead, Madame Web focuses on the adventures of Dakota Johnson's clairvoyant Cassandra Webb and Spider-Women Julia Cornwall, Mattie Franklin, and Anya Corazon.
Spider-Man 3 was a commercial success, being the highest-grossing movie of the trilogy, but it has been criticized for its story, and Sam Raimi knows well why it failed, and it's all about the characters.
What is the number 2 highest grossing movie of all time?
The most successful superhero film, Avengers: Endgame, is also the second-highest-grossing film on the nominal earnings chart, and there are four films in total based on the Avengers comic books charting in the top twenty.
Foxx's portrayal of Electro was met with mixed responses. Critics also deemed it inferior to its predecessor. It grossed $709 million worldwide, making it the ninth-highest-grossing film of 2014.
