“Madame Web” Had ‘Drastic’ Script Changes

Sony Pictures

Sony’s newest Marvel film “Madame Web” hits cinemas tomorrow and is already making headlines for the bad reviews flowing out left and right for the title.

The $80 million budgeted film was shot throughout the back half of 2022 all over Massachusetts, and whilst there was a report about reshoots earlier this year, they were said to mostly tie into continuity issues with the film’s 2003 period setting.

Now, according to the film’s star Dakota Johnson, it seems the script for the film underwent some pretty extensive adjustments whilst filming.

Speaking with The Wrap, she confirms the script she signed onto the project with was very different from the one that made it to screen:

“There were drastic changes, and I can’t even tell you what they were.”

She adds that the biggest issue was filming her character’s future visions which offered multiple versions of the same scene from different perspectives:

“It added so many different camera set-ups, like triple the amount of work. And it was very complex, and there’s only like minor differences between each version of the same scene, so it was like puzzle pieces, and really paying attention to what moment we’re in, and what angle we’re in, and continuity and things like that.”

Johnson stars in the film as Cassandra Webb, a young paramedic who develops clairvoyant powers and sees three young women she’s crossed paths with – Sydney Sweeney’s Julia Cornwall, Isabela Merced’s Anya Corazon and Celeste O’Connor’s Mattie Franklin – are being hunted by a masked man (Tahar Rahim).
