Gaming🎮 For one Madame Web actor, the box office flop was just a "strategic business decision"

We all know how bad Madame Web is, including Sydney Sweeney, but for her it was just a business move.

If you had told me that after Morbius, Sony would somehow manage to have an even more disastrous box office flop with Madame Web, I would 100% believe you, but it's still funny that it happened at all. Not even the cast can stand by it, and in a recent interview with GQ UK, Sweeney explained her reasoning behind signing up to the project. "To me that film was a building block, it’s what allowed me to build a relationship with Sony," Sweeney explained. "Without doing Madame Web I wouldn’t have a relationship with the decision-makers over there. Everything in my career I do not just for that story, but strategic business decisions. Because I did that, I was able to sell Anyone But You. I was able to get Barbarella."

Thankfully, she also seems to be quite chill about the very negative critical and commercial response to Madame Web, saying that "the movie is such a large movie with so many people involved. I was just hired as an actor and happy to bring to life a character that my little cousins are excited about. There’s no outcome I can control on a film like that, especially when I’m not a producer. You sign up for whatever happens and you take the ride."
