What is Madame Web about?
The movie begins in 1973 with Cassie ’s mother , Constance , researching a rare , occult spider in the Peruvian Amazon with Ezekiel , hop its healing properties would heal her unborn daughter ’s debilitating illness . Unfortunately , Ezekiel steal the wanderer for himself , shooting and depart Constance for numb . Before the latter succumbs to her injury , an indigenous , superpowered tribe has one of these spiders sting her to examine and heal her . This gives Cassie powers that lie down dormant in her until a near - dying experience in the present day .
As Cassie attempt to subdue her novel precog abilities , she foresees Ezekiel attempting to kill the three next Spider - Women and assay to protect them from his ire . Cassie eventually learns that Ezekiel was cursed by the wanderer he steal , giving him great power consanguineal to Spider - Man but obsess him with visions of his expiry at the hands of the three Spider - Women , whom he hopes to kill first .
The film ’s subplot reveals that Webb ’s admirer / conscientious objector - proletarian ( Adam Scott ) , who helps Cassie hide out the girls from Ezekiel , is none other than Peter Parker ’s beloved Uncle Ben . Not only that , but Ben ’s baby - in - law , Mary ( Emma Roberts ) , is fraught with the succeeding region Spider - Man , and she survive into labor while they ’re in hiding .
How does Madame Web end?
mimosa bush and the girls come through in killing Ezekiel , but the former is provide unsighted by a isolated pyrotechnic that was lit during the engagement . However , her blindness enhances her clairvoyant ability , and with her experience out of a wheelchair , Cassie has completed her transformation into the Madame Web fans know from the funnies .
At the same time , Ben witness Mary give birth to Peter in the infirmary , with Cassie already previse Ben and his nephew ’s fabled fate . This ending seems to consist the groundwork for a new Peter Parker to appear in Sony ’s Spider - Man Universe , but make the timeline of the motion picture , he probably wo n’t be one that fans are familiar with ( sorry , Andrew Garfield as Spider - Man buff ) . Cassie ’s noesis of Peter also incriminate that Cassie will work close with the webslinger in the future .
In the end , Cassie extend to look after Julia , Mattie , and Anya as a surrogate mother figure . Though the girls have n’t acquired their major power yet , Cassie see that they will become the vane - sling vigilance man as envisioned throughout the film , ending it with a puzzler for what seems to be a continuation tale .
Does Madame Web have a post-credits scene?
astonishingly , Madame Webhas zero post - credits setting . Also , despite its connexion to Spider - Man and the mythos surrounding the fibre , the story has little to no connexion to the rest of Sony ’s Spider - Man Universe or the Marvel Cinematic Universe . At first glimpse , it ’s hard to tell ifVenomorMorbiusare even sic in the same universe .
It may be brisk to see a superhero film try out to suffer out on its own these days without repair to post - credits picture . However , one would think that a movie with such down expectations from consultation would try out to fall back on its connexion to a bigger narrative , especially if it involves one of the most beloved superheroes in the world . But it appears that Sony was scare away from this approach by the fallout of that Morbius - Vulture crossover voter inMorbius .
All in all , Madame Webhas a very strong connection to Spider - Man , even great than Venom or Morbius , so this film could set up some intriguing stories , specially now that another Peter Parker has entered the scene . What the future holds for Sony ’s cinematic universe is anyone ’s guess , but give way the reaction from critics and audiences , it ’s changeable if it will be able to go on pastVenom 3 .
Madame Webis play in theaters across the nation . Do n’t see it .
