Adam Scott Joins Sony’s ‘Spider-Man’ Spinoff ‘Madame Web’
Just a few days after landing an Emmy nomination for Apple TV+’s hit drama “Severance,” Adam Scott is joining the cast of Sony’s superhero film “Madame Web.”
The movie stars Dakota Johnson as Madame Web, a clairvoyant whose psychic abilities allow her to see within the spider world itself.
The movie will be an origin story for the character, who served as an ally to Spider-Man in the Marvel comics.
The rest of the cast includes Sydney Sweeney, who just received double Emmy nominations, Emma Roberts, Celeste O’Connor,
Isabela Merced, Tahar Rahim and Mike Epps. S.J. Clarkson directs the spinoff in Sony’s universe of Marvel characters. Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless wrote the script.
Scott will star in Season 2 of “Severance,” which was renewed earlier this year and hauled 14 Emmy nominations, including best drama series.
