MIAMI - Never in a million years did Dakota Johnson think she would be in a superhero movie, nor did her fans. However, her latest role in "Madame Web" is just that: a super hero from the Marvel Universe, no less. Why did she take it? "It sounded so different from what I thought it would be that I got hooked," she said in an interview with the Latin Times.
In the movie, part of the Spider-Man universe, she plays Cassandra Web, a paramedic who develops clairvoyant powers. Johnson said she got to drive all kinds of cars "like a maniac," fulfilling a childhood dream of becoming a car race driver. She also recreated the "protective" relationship she has with her younger sisters in her interactions with Isabela Merced, Sidney Sweeney, and Celeste O'Connor.
