Everything Spider-Man at the moment is sure to make a massive buzz if not an impressionable dent. While the web-slinging superhero and his world have always been among those with the biggest fandoms, the craze only bloomed with Spider-Man: No Way Home. But it turns out the frenzy has not translated well for Madame Web, which hit shores this month and is one of the most prominent films in Sony’s plan to expand the Spidey Universe. The movie, which opened to a shocking $25.8 million on the first weekend, is still hitting rock bottom and is nowhere near finding redemption across the globe. For a film hyped on a scale as grand as the Dakota Johnson starrer was, the movie is yet to even cross Morbius’s first-week collection.

Madame Web Box Office

The fact that Madame Web was announced as the worst-performing Spider-Man universe movie ever in history gave the movie an added roadblock to tackle on a way that was already bumpy. This has kind of affected the run even more, and the movie has not even managed to earn double its first weekend collection by the end of the second weekend.

As per reports, the movie has managed to only fare close to $10 million more at the domestic box office, which has now brought its homeland collection to $35.45 million. Globally, the movie is not doing well either, as it has only managed to garner $77.4 million, and we are now wrapping up a 12-day theatrical run already.

Morbius Comparison

But what is even more bothersome is the fact that Madame Web has not even managed to earn as much as Morbius’s one-weekend collection in two weeks. In the first weekend, Morbius had made $83.9 billion, and that was considered a supremely underwhelming performance at the box office back in the day. Now, with the Dakota Johnson starrer not even doing those numbers in two weekends, the rock bottom for Sony has been redefined, and it is not really good news. However, Morbius didn’t perform well after that and ended its theatrical run with a $167.5 million collection.

About Madame Web

Madame Web is based on the story of Cassandra Web, a part of the Spider-Man universe in Marvel Comics. Alongside Dakota Johnson as the titular character, it also stars Sydney Sweeney as Julia Cornwall aka Spider-Woman, Isabela Merced as Anya Corazon aka Spider-Woman, and Celeste O'Connor as Mattie Franklin aka Spider-Woman. Directed by S.J. Clarkson, the movie is now in theaters.
