Spider-Man Spinoff Madame Web Release Date Delayed 3 Months
Sony has delayed the release of Madame Web back three months. Sony Picture's latest entry in Sony's Spider-Man Universe based on the character Madame Web has been taking shape over the past few months with S.J. Clarkson set to direct and 50 Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson in the title role.
