• It will follow J.C. Chandor’s ‘Kraven the Hunter,’ starring Aaron Taylor Johnson.
• The Madame Web is due out in January.

Tahar Rahim, joins Madame Web which represents in the comics as an old woman with myasthenia gravis who was tethered to a life-support system that resembled a spider web. Madame Web never actively fought any villains due to her age and sick condition.

As a result, insiders say it’s likely the project will morph into something different. According to insiders, she is Sony’s version of Doctor Strange owing to her psychic sensory abilities. As of yet, Rahim’s role in the film remains unknown.
