Warning: The Infamous Madame Web Trailer Line Isn’t in the Movie


Her mother was in the Amazon researching spiders right before she died. Just not all in one sentence.

But if you’re thinking of buying a ticket to experience the moment Johnson’s titular Madame Web delivers the famous line from the trailer — “He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died” — don’t bother. And the quality that made the trailer moment so iconic, its determination to shoehorn as many clauses as possible into one sentence, does speak to a line that was likely ADR’d in after shooting to make the backstory crystal clear to potential viewers. Still, after all the hubbub about Ana de Armas not being in Yesterday, I hope this information will save any disappointed viewers of Madame Web a lot of money in legal fees.
