So far the 2024 release schedule has only delivered one superhero movie: "Madame Web," which starred Dakota Johnson as the clairvoyant Cassandra Webb and took place within Sony’s Spider-Man Universe (SSMU). The movie was panned by critics, with CinemaBlend’s "Madame Web" review giving just two stars out of five. Johnson has since admitted that she wasn’t surprised "Madame Web" was “ripped to shreds,” and said that she “probably will never do anything like it again.” Now Russell Crowe, an actor who knows his way around the superhero genre, has given his blunt response over Johnson’s disappointment at how her Madame Web experience turned out.
Crowe has already played Jor-El in "Man of Steel" and Zeus in "Thor: Love and Thunder," and he’ll be seen later this year in the upcoming superhero movie "Kraven the Hunter," another SSMU installment, as Nikolai Kravinoff, Kraven’s estranged father. During a conversation about his latest movie, "The Exorcism," GQ brought up Dakota Johnson’s prior comments about "Madame Web," including how these tentpole superhero movies can feel like art “made by a committee,” and the publication asked the "Gladiator" alum what his experience has been like on these kinds of productions.
