Venom 4 and other Spider-Man villain spinoff's axed by Sony

<p>Sony Pictures CEO Tony Vinciquerra refuses to believe that the recent slate of films that Marvel has released are poor in quality. Speaking to the Los Angeles Times about <em>Kraven The Hunter</em> not hitting a mark and opening with a dismal performance at the box office, he pointed out to Dakota Johnson starrer <em>Madame Web</em> and said that it was the press that criticised the film and resulted in such a poor performance at the box office.&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Kraven The Hunter</em> released earlier this month and is said to have had &ldquo;probably the worst launch we had&rdquo; in the nearly eight years of being at the studio said Tony adding: &ldquo;I still don&rsquo;t understand, because the film is not a bad film.&rdquo;<em> </em></p>
<p><em>Kraven The Hunter&nbsp;</em>was released in theatres on December 13 and registered a $11 million debut, which is the lowest for any Sony-released Marvel film. The movie&rsquo;s total collection currently stands at just $18 million, making the total worldwide collection to the tune of $43 million.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tony also addressed the film <em>Madame Web</em>&rsquo;s poor reaction. At the event, he said, &ldquo;Let&rsquo;s just touch on Madame Web for a moment. Madame Web underperformed in the theatres because the press just crucified it. It was not a bad film, and it did great on Netflix. For some reason, the press decided that they didn&rsquo;t want us making these films out of Kraven and Madame Web, and the critics just destroyed them. They also did it with Venom, but the audience loved Venom and made Venom a massive hit.&rdquo;</p>
<p>He defended those films and added, &ldquo;These are not terrible films. They were just destroyed by the critics in the press, for some reason.&rdquo;</p>

Kraven The Hunter follows the pattern of Madame Web and other Marvel films that released in 2024 and didn't do much for the studio. Sony Pictures CEO blamed the press for it.

'Marvel films are not bad films, critics destroy them' says Sony Pictures CEO

<p>The first review&nbsp;for the Spider-Man spinoff <em>Madame Web</em>&nbsp;is here. Dakota Johnson-starrer&nbsp;is&nbsp;the first female superhero standalone film in the Sony-Marvel universe and the first big release from the studio of the year. However, the movie has got a very disappointing start.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Directed by SJ Clarkson, the movie starring Dakota as a paramedic in New York, has received negative reviews. &nbsp;</p>

<p>The movie is based on the character<em> Madame Web</em>, who&nbsp;first appeared in the 1980 comic book 'The Amazin Spider-Man'. In the comic, she's an elderly woman, who is paralysed and blind and is suffering from a rare autoimmune disorder due to which she's always on a life support system which is in the form of spiderweb. However, her psychic abilities allow her to see the future. In the recently released film, Cassandra Webb played by Johnson is a New York paramedic, who is curious about psychic visions.&nbsp;</p>

<br />
The film which has been called one of the worst superhero movies of recent times has scored a 15 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 125 reviews.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Apart from Dakota, the supporting cast of the film boasts an impressive lineup. The cast of the movie includes Sydney Sweeney as Julia Carpenter, Emma Roberts as Mary Parker, Celeste O’Connor as Mattie Franklin, Isabela Merced as Anya Corazon and Tahar Rahim as Ezekiel Sims.</p>

<p><strong>Here are all the reviews</strong></p>

<p>Variety's Peter Debruge&nbsp;called Johnson's movie 'superfluous.'' He writes, “Madame Web was never going to touch the relatively high-concept, Disney-made “Avengers” movies. The script is confusing, the action stale and the visual effects cheap. A recurring device that places Cassie at the center of what looks like a giant plasma ball, surrounded by static tendrils, is downright embarrassing. But guess what? Tickets still cost just as much as they would for a more canonical Marvel movie. So why settle for the knockoff?''</p>

<p>The Guardian's Benjamin Lee said that ''the film is as dumb and schlocky as the worst of the genre, with lousy network TV effects, uninvolving action and unfunny and inelegant dialogue.''</p>

Actress Sydney Sweeney has been roped in for Dakota Johnson starrer ‘Madame Web’. Sony’s Universe of Marvel Characters made the announcement after first roping in Dakota in the role of their first female superhero. The film will be directed by SJ Clarkson.
