Madame Web's Celeste O'Connor Wants to Do Crossover With Live-Action Miles Morales (Exclusive)

Madame Web arrives in theaters in just a matter of days, adding a whole new layer to Sony's stamp on Spider-Man characters. The live-action film brings together a number of Marvel Comics' Spider-Women, throwing them into an unprecedented crossover event. With Madame Web on the horizon, and the multiverse of heroes and villains more popular than ever thanks to Sony's hit animated Spider-Verse movies, some fans have naturally wondered which crossovers could be on the horizon. In a recent interview with ComicBook.com, Mattie Franklin actress Celeste O'Connor and Anya Corazon actress Isabela Merced both named a hypothetical live-action Miles Morales as the character they would most like to cross over with.

"I almost want to share a screen with the live action Miles Morales," O'Connor explained in our interview, which you can check out above. "Personally, I feel like Maddie Franklin and Miles could be friends. I could say that."

I think we all want Miles Morales in the live action," Merced echoed.

What Is Madame Web About?

In Madame Web, Cassandra "Cassie" Webb (Dakota Johnson) is forced to confront her past while trying to survive with three young women with powerful futures who are being hunted by a deadly adversary. 

"It's really the story of Madame Web," producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura previously told ComicBook.com. "So, in that respect, if you're a Spider-Man fan, you're gonna love the character because you know it from the comic books, which she doesn't really have that big a character in the comic books, we're doing the origin story of Madame Web. And so you meet her before she's actually the person that you know in the comic book and you come to understand how she becomes that person. So, I think that'll be a really fresh new terrain for the fans."

Who Is in the Cast of Madame Web?

In addition to Johnson, Madame Web will also star Sydney Sweeney as Julia Carpenter / Spider-Woman, Isabela Merced as Anya Corazon / Spider-Woman, and Celeste O'Connor as Mattie Franklin / Spider-Woman. The film will also star Tahar Rahim as Ezekiel Sims, with Mike Epps, Emma Roberts, Adam Scott, and Zosia Mamet cast in currently-unknown roles.

"I've always been a really big fan of all the Marvel and Sony Universe movies," Sydney explained in a 2022 interview shortly after being cast. "I've grown up watching them all and I've been engulfed in the entire world my entire life, so being able to be a part of that is such an incredible, incredible thing."

Is Madame Web Connected to Spider-Man?

In a recent interview, Madame Web director S.J. Clarkson confirmed that the film is not directly connected to any previous live-action incarnations of Spider-Man, despite theories from fans hoping for the contrary.

"She's definitely in a standalone world," Clarkson told the outlet. "I was able to just have free rein and let the movie be what it needed to be, as opposed to trying to force it into something else. That was a gift, in a way, to be able to take something and bring a fresh and I hope original take to it."
