While the world of Marvel<\/a> on the big screen has mostly been succesful, a handful of installments have ended up becoming box office disasters in the ever-growing superhero movie genre. As the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline<\/a> has had its fair share of flops, it’s not on the scale like the ones in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.<\/p>\n

The Madame Web<\/a> film, which became the first entry in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe headlined by one of Marvel’s more obscure heroines, was, according to a new report from Bloomberg<\/a>, a massive hit on Netflix in 2024. Per the outlet, it became Sony’s most-watched film on Netflix last year.<\/p>\n

However, another installment from Sony’s Spider-Man Universe that was also performing well on Netflix was Kraven the Hunter, which became the last film in that franchise. There are currently no plans to resurrect that universe, which began with 2018’s Venom.<\/p>\n

\n Cassandra Webb with the Spider-Women in Madame Web<\/p>\n

By the end of Madame Web’s theatrical run, the Dakota Johnson-starring film had grossed only $100.4 million at the worldwide box office. The 2024 entry has 10% in the Critics’ Score while sitting with 53% in the Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/p>\n

In ScreenRant’s Madame Web<\/a> movie review <\/a>by Molly Freeman, the film was panned for the script by director S.J. Clarkson and writers Matt Sazama, Burk Sharpless, and Claire Parker, from poor dialogue to underdeveloped characters and story. This also applied to the Marvel villain Ezekiel Sims and the three Spider-Women.<\/p>\n

Sydney Sweeney starred as Julia Cornwall, while Isabela Merced and Celeste O’Connor portrayed Anya Coraz\u00f3n and Mattie Franklin. Adam Scott appeared as a young Ben Parker, while Emma Roberts played his sister, Mary Parker, better known as Peter Parker’s mother, who gives birth to him towards the end of <\/a>Madame Web<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As far as what is next for the web-crawler on the big screen, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios have Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which is currently in production and slated for July 31, 2026. Sony will also have Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse on June 18, 2027.<\/p>\n

However, Sony Pictures Television will bring a new live-action Spider-Man to the small screen in 2026, with Nicolas Cage’s Spider-Noir TV show<\/a> on MGM+, which wrapped filming in March 2025. No premiere date has been set yet for the upcoming Marvel series.<\/p>\n
