She will join the universe's stacked roster of heroes, antiheroes and villains including Venom and Morbius.
The film, which will be the feature directorial debut of S.J. Clarkson (Jessica Jones, Succession), is expected to deliver a new take on the character than what we've seen in the comics.
Since debuting in The Amazing Spider-Man in 1980, Madame Web has been depicted as elderly, with her powers largely being psychic and telekinetic.
The character is blind, paralysed, and never fights any villains directly - but has used her powers to help Peter Parker over the years.

The screenplay has been written Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless, who also wrote the upcoming Morbius.
