Dakota Johnson’s Madame Web is one of the most highly anticipated movies from Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, and while they have been very secretive about the plot and cast details of the film, fans could not help but speculate that Adam Scott’s role, based on the latest trailer, is the famous Ben Parker.
The project still remains a huge mystery to the viewers, and with that strategy, it is keeping everyone guessing and talking about how it would fare at the box office and in the entirety of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.
Spider-Man Fans React To Adam Scott’s Scene In Madame Web
Adam Scott’s involvement in Dakota Johnson’s Madame Web came as a surprise for the actor. According to his interview with Collider, he was supposed to go on a holiday before he got the call. He said the proposal was too tempting to turn down.
“I actually didn’t think I was gonna work over the summer before we started Severance up again because we started in October, and I wasn’t planning on working at all before then. Then this came up, and I couldn’t resist.”
In a recently released video by Sony Pictures, fans saw Scott in a brief scene with Dakota Johnson’s Cassandra Webb. He was holding out a piece of paper and saying, “You have a winning personality. I guess I got yours by mistake.”
Fans were quick to react to the scene, and one Twitter user claimed, “That fortune he’s holding is where we get the origin of ‘with great power comes great responsibility.’ ” Rumors say that Scott is playing Ben Parker, but this is not yet confirmed by the studio. Now, here are some of the best reactions from fans:
This hurts to think about

It remains to be seen what important role Scott would play in Madame Web, but hopefully his character would set up one of the most significant foundations in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.
What To Expect From Dakota Johnson’s Madame Web
Dakota Johnson previously talked about her involvement in Sony’s Madame Web and admitted that this project was a breather for her. She has never done any superhero roles before, and fans are clearly excited to see what she is going to offer. The actress told Variety:
“It was a wild experience. I don’t think you can be prepped to go into anything like that, but I learned so much. It’s a completely different way of making films, you know.”
The cast also includes Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor, Isabela Merced, Emma Roberts, Tahar Rahim, and Zosia Mamet. The latest report from the Norwegian ticketing company website FilmWeb claims that the movie will run for 1 hour and 56 minutes (or 116 mins).
While many rumors and theories are plaguing the internet, one of the most famous ones involving Madame Web’s plot would follow a Terminator-like story where Cassandra Webb would prevent a time-traveling villain from killing Mary Parker and her unborn son Peter.
Marvel and Sony have yet to confirm these rumors, but the image features from the clips uploaded online saw Johnson and Scott in Emergency Medical Technician uniforms, so everything is possible.
Madame Web will arrive in theaters on February 16, 2024.
