Madame Web (2024)

The #21 biggest blockbuster of the year (so far), Madame Web switches up the superhero genre with the standalone origin story of one of Marvel's most enigmatic heroines.

Emmy nominee Sydney Sweeney ​​(Anyone But You, The White Lotus, Euphoria), Celeste O’Connor (Lucky in the Ghostbusters movies) and Teen Choice nominee Isabela Merced (Dora and the Lost City of Gold, Transformers: The Last Knight) co-star, with BAFTA nominee Tahar Rahim (Napoleon), Teen Choice winner Emma Roberts (We're the Millers, American Horror Story), Emmy nominee Adam Scott (Parks and Recreation, Severance) and Zosia Mamet (The Flight Attendant) among the support cast.
