Details for Madame Web have been very scarce despite the movie completing filming months ago. Luckily, one of its stars may have accidentally revealed which character she will be playing in the upcoming film.
In a recent interview with Total Film, Sydney Sweeney revealed that she will portray Spider-Woman in the upcoming movie. This confirmsprevious rumors that the actor will play Julia Carpenter, the second Spider-Woman in the Spider-Man spin-off. The actress shared that she "couldn't be more excited" and that she "can't wait to be able to talk about it." Who is Julia Carpenter? Spider-Woman got her powers from a secret government experiment.
Julia Carpenter gained her spider powers from an experiment done by the secretive government organization called The Commission. Carpenter was told that the experiment was part of an "athletic study." She was then injected with a cocktail composed of spider venom and exotic plants – imbuing her with her superpowers.
Carpenter later took the mantle of Spider-Woman - though not the first to don this hero persona - and was involved in Secret Wars among other Marvel events. She allied herself with the Avengers during the conflict.
