Well, as for Madame Web, the film is part of the parallel project to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) that Sony is carrying out with its right to explore all properties related to Spider-Man.
Therefore, the film is part of the same reality as Venom, Morbius and the already finished Kraven the Hunter, whose premiere was postponed from this year to 2024, that is, it is part of the Marvel Multiverse, but from an Earth different from Marvel’s . the main one we see in Marvel Studios attractions.
But who are the protagonists Mrs. Teiaand why have you never actually heard of these characters?
Who is Cassandra Web, Madame Web?
The original Madame Teia premiered in The Amazing Spider-Man #210published in 1980. Cassandra Webb was, in fact, an elderly mutant who always appeared sitting in a chair full of cobwebs around her.
Born blind in the comics, Cassandra began using her mutant powers of clairvoyance to become a medium before coming into contact with various Marvel characters such as Spider-Man. Other psychic abilities Madame Web possesses are telepathy/mind reading, astral projection, psychic surgery, and mind alteration.
The character never had much relevance and his origin was rewritten several times. Furthermore, he has always appeared in storylines with absurd or confusing plots, including resurrection and mystical animal avatars, among other things that writers sometimes push to turn Spider-Man into a force of nature in Marvel.
As you can see in the trailer, apparently there will still be some mystical connection between her and the spider-related mystical animal avatars. For the rest everything is different from the original version: in the film Cassandra walks, she sees and is much more beautiful and younger. In Mrs. Teiawill be played by Dakota Johnson.
Who is Julia Carpenter, Spider-Woman?
Many people confuse this character with Jessica Drew, the more popular Spider-Woman who has that flashy red and yellow uniform and it was part New Avengers in the mid-2000s. Julia Carpenter is also called Spider-Woman, but she is a completely different heroine.
In comics, Julia Carpenter first appeared in Secret Wars #6, In the Secret Wars originalsin 1984. Her origin is also a bit poorly explained: she was an involuntary guinea pig in what was purported to be an athletic study, and was given spider venom, among other plant extracts, developing Spider-Man-like powers .
Thus, Spider-Woman Julia Carpenter has improved speed, strength, durability, stamina and reflexes. Instead of web-slingers, she has psionic abilities that can manifest as webs or the ability to stick to walls.
It’s worth noting that Julia Carpenter was a member of the West Coast Avengers and later became Arachne, before becoming the second Madame Teia – yes, there are these three characters in the movie, which makes everything even more confusing in the comics, if compared to the trailer. In Mrs. Teiawill be played by Sydney Sweeney.
Who is Mattie Franklin, Spider-Woman?
Because Marvel Comics thought that having two characters with the same name wasn’t confusing enough, they introduced another Spider-Woman in 1998: Martha “Mattie” Franklin first appeared in Spectacular Spider-Man #263. She gained his powers through a ritual called the Gathering of Five.
Her father, Norman Osborn, and others, including Madame Web, used this ceremony to receive unknown powers. She has achieved the same physical enhancements as Julia Carpenter, from increased durability, speed and agility to superhuman strength and reflexes. After taking over the role of Spider-Woman from Jessica Drew, Franklin also gained the ability to crawl along walls, fire blasts of venom, and summon psychic spider legs, as well as the power of flight.
In Mrs. Teiawill be played by Celeste O.
Who is Anya Corazon, the Araña or Spider-Girl?
In the comics, Anya Sofia Corazon first appeared in Extraordinary fantasy n. 1, released in 2004, and is known as Araña or Spider-Girl. Another character with unresolved origins, Corazon gained her powers by participating in the life force transfer of the leader of a cult called the Spider Society.
As for Araña’s powers, they are identical to Spider-Man’s, with enhanced strength, durability, speed, agility, and reflexes, as well as the ability to wall-crawl. As a bonus, he can blend into the shadows and his webs are organic.
Since the Spider-Girl nickname came when Spider-Society had a storyline involving Kraven the Hunter, it is quite possible that there is some connection, as the movie about Spider-Man’s enemy is also ready and part of the Sony’s own Spider-Verse. In Mrs. Teiawill be played by Isabela Merced.
