“Everybody has, at some point in life, has felt marginalized, on the fringes, a bit lost, and I think we all crave connection,” director S.J. Clarkson tells Refinery29. In her mind, the fact that Madame Web is made by and about women (something that still isn’t common enough in the comic book adaptation boom) and features a more obscure character gives the movie a unique perspective; she felt that they had the creative freedom and opportunity to dig deeper into the more human elements of the story, hence the nature of Cassie’s relationship with the teens. “And in Madame Web, you see those connections start to form and come together — and that doesn’t always come in the most easy, organic way.”
