Dakota Johnson Took Almost A Week’s Time After Madame Web’s Trailer Release  To Switch Agencies

Dakota J0hnson’s recent switch from her previous talent agency WMB to Creative Artists Agency has already become a talking point in the entertainment industry. According to the famous media outlet Variety, Johnson switched from WMB to CAA almost ten days after Madame Web’s official trailer release. CAA would be representing Dakota Johnson in almost every area as well as her production company TeaTime Pictures.

Madame Web is a part of Sony’s Spider-Man universe. Created by John Romita Jr. and Denny O’Neil in 1980, the character of Cassandra Webb was introduced as a paralyzed and blind woman with telepathic superpowers. With Dakota Johnson and S.J. Clarkson leading it, the standalone project marks the origin story of Cassandra Webb.

Madame Web is gradually inching towards its theatrical release. Johnson will be seen playing the role of a paramedic with clairvoyant abilities with the task of guiding teenage girls who end up discovering their own powers. The movie also features actors like Sydney Sweeney from Euphoria, Isabela Merced, Emma Roberts Adam Scott, and Zosia Mamet.

Dakota Johnson Claims She Can Do Wild Things With A Car

During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Dakota Johnson spoke about her first Marvel project Madame Web, director S.J. Clarkson, and her stunts with the cars. While talking about the movie, the actor claimed that she can do wild things with a car now. She said-

“I got to do a day of stunt driving work, and I’m really good at it, it seems! I mean, I can do some really wild things with a car. I drove an ambulance. I drove a taxicab. I drove everything in the movie — except for flying through the air and out of a building. But other than that, I’m like, ‘Watch out, Tom Cruise.’”

Filmmaker S.J. Clarkson loved the character of Cassandra Webb. While talking about the character she said-

“I really love the idea of somebody who can see into the future, but until they can really understand their past and appreciate where they are, they can’t use that power. Without wanting to overload it with profundity, I thought that’s an amazing thing to explore: If we understand our past and see where we are in the present, we can then make better choices for the future.”

The plot of Madame Web revolves around Cassandra coming across her powers when she ends up crossing paths with a mysterious enemy Ezekiel Sims played by Tahar Rahim. Sims is looking out for three women named Julia Cornwall, Mattie Franklin, and Anya Corazon played by Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor, and Isabela Merced.

Madame Web hits the theatres on February 14.
