Dakota Johnson on 'Madame Web,' studio executives and protecting creatives | AP interview

Dakota Johnson chose "Madame Web" as her first superhero movie in part because it's about "a young woman whose power is her mind." The 34-year-old star, who also has her own production company, spoke with Associated Press entertainment reporter Leslie Ambriz about her "scrappy and primal" fight scenes, the need for female-driven stories and her push to protect creatives from studio executives. #madameweb #dakotajohnson

Y'all understand that promoting the movie is something she has to do contractually, not a choice, yeah?

[@darthtechnologies553]

Madame Web movie was horrible, on par with Morbius! Its like the executives have never read the comics and just make movies based on character bios

[@Charlierose214]

Not just executives the writers….the writers, like it boggles my mind how executives read the morbius script /saw the reactions and was still like yes we need you again

[@MLTAKOS]

im 90% sure they do it to keep spiderman rights from any spiderman related comic bc disney wants spiderman back on disney+

[@llllldrijcsujhddghjkclllllllll]

Interesting, what movies have you been involved in, so we can compare?

[@koshka02]

Morbius was bad in a silly/campy sort of way. Madame Web was really just a complete disaster in every way possible. I don't even think it had a single redeeming quality to it. 0/10.

Oscar winning performance here from Dakota! Not worried that the film wouldn't do great! Pull another one! It is one of thee worst superhero movies of all time! And she knows it!

[@unkown34x33]

But the movie wasn't even stimulating.... :/ for the complete turn off

[@JCJW101]

"People want to be stimulated" says the least stimulating person in existence.

[@wiredcer]

Notice the self-comforting and evasive body language at 00:41 - 00:48 when she has to explain why this film is significant

[@punapeter]

I watch all my movies online. 1 in 20 is WAF, maybe.

[@jacko_jaxon]

As do I. Terrible movie! Absolutely shocking performances and the script is just awful! Just tell us the truth Dakota as the words coming out of your mouth have been written for you!

[@crobeastness]

What's WAF?

[@punapeter]
