After their work on the Marvel Comics-based film Morbius (2022), part of Sony's Spider-Man Universe, Sony hired Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless in September 2019 to write a script centered around the Marvel character Madame Web. In May 2020, S. J. Clarkson was hired to develop and direct Sony's first female-centric Marvel film, which was reported to be the Madame Web film. The studio was looking to attach a prominent actor such as Charlize Theron or Amy Adams to the project, before hiring a new writer to further develop the film with the actress in mind.

Casting

In February 2022, Dakota Johnson had been cast in the title role.
