How is Madame Web connected to Spider-Man universe?

The groundwork laid by the 2018 Venom film, starring Tom Hardy, set the stage for Sony’s evolving universe, further enhanced by the momentum of the sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. As Madame Web, featuring Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney, prepares to captivate audiences, whispers of a connection between this film and the highly anticipated Venom 3 have surfaced, piquing the curiosity of fans.

Initially perceived as an independent narrative, Madame Web’s origin, as indicated on IMDb, seemed detached from the intricate web of Venom and the broader Spider-Man universe. However, recent insights from a New Rockstars YouTube video suggest a concealed link that could reshape the future of Sony’s Spider-Man narrative.

The video delves into the intricate connection between Madame Web, Venom 3, and the Marvel Cinematic Multiverse. Using a tree as a symbolic representation – a motif shared by both Sony and Marvel in their animated and live-action films – the video unravels the Multiverse as a complex network of vertical branches. Within this structure, the spiderverse emerges as a distinct entity, akin to a spider web interwoven across the branches.

Both Sony and Marvel adopt the concept that Destiny governs the fate of their characters, yet these characters possess the agency to defy their predetermined paths. The video draws attention to a pivotal moment where Eddie and Venom cross into the MCU after the credits roll in Venom: Let There Be Carnage. The speculation arises that cosmic forces, possibly associated with the web of life and destiny, orchestrated this crossover, suggesting a grander scheme within the Multiverse.

The significance of Destiny echoes in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, portraying Madame Web as the guardian of the Spider-Verse, akin to Loki’s role as the God of storytelling in the MCU. With her ability to see the future, Madame Web becomes a crucial figure in unraveling the cosmic intricacies of the interconnected Spider-Man narrative. As audiences gear up for the release of Madame Web, the anticipation grows, fueled by the tantalizing prospect of uncovering the threads that tie this enigmatic character to the ever-expanding Spider-Verse.
