Emma Roberts ("American Horror Story", "Scream 4") has joined the cast of Sony Pictures' upcoming Marvel superhero movie "Madame Web", which will be directed by S.J. Clarkson ("The Defenders", "Jessica Jones") from a script penned by "Morbius" writers Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless.
The cast already includes Dakota Johnson in the title role, Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O'Connor, Isabela Merced and Tahar Rahim. Roberts' role in the film is unknown.
In the comics, Madame Web is depicted as an elderly blind woman suffering from a chronic neuromuscular disease that makes it difficult to move and breathe. As such, she's connected to a life support system that looks like a spider web. The clairvoyant character has precognitive abilities and once helped Spider-Man find a kidnap victim.
Roberts recently wrapped production on the romantic comedy "Maybe I Do", in which she stars opposite Diane Keaton, Susan Sarandon and Richard Gere. She is also set to star in the upcoming new season of "American Horror Story".
