Unfortunately, the sequel to “Madame Web” has been axed due to disappointing box office numbers.
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Sony Pictures has made the decision to scrap the follow-up to Madame Web, even before the final box office figures are in.
Initially, there were plans for Madame Web to kickstart a franchise, but it seems that Sony Pictures misjudged the level of interest from audiences. According to THR, there was a noticeable trend of people canceling their pre-booked tickets after the film’s release, following negative feedback from both viewers and critics.
After 6 days, the film has only grossed 51.6 million dollars globally, despite its Valentine’s Day debut, which is typically a lucrative period for the box office. With the project needing to make at least 160-180 million dollars just to break even, it appears to be an unattainable goal.
