Madame Web stars Dakota Johnson as the title character, but does 2024’s first superhero movie feature a post-credits scene?

Sony’s comic book movies – which tend to be about Spider-Man, or Spidey-adjacent characters – normally feature post-credits scenes.

From Spider-Man to The Amazing Spider-Man, and Venom to Morbius, the studio’s fare usually include extra sequences that set-up future films.

So does Madame Web do the same? Or does it feature a post-credits scene to pay-off something that’s set-up earlier in the movie? Scroll down to find out…

Does Madame Web have a post-credits scene?

No, Madame Web does not have a post-credits scene. Meaning that once those names start scrolling up the screen, the movie is over.

Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura says the lack of such a scene wasn’t planned – rather it happened organically. Speaking to ComicBook.com, di Bonaventura explained: “It wasn’t a conscious decision to say ‘We’re not going going to do that since everybody else does it,’ but we really liked having the ambiguity of it and having the promise of it that stood hand-to-hand where that other piece would then solidify it in a certain direction.”

Madame Web is also a standalone movie, meaning no other Spider-Verse characters appear. “We made a decision early on that the advantage in this story was not to attach it to all these other stories,” di Bonaventura says in the same interview. “We tip the hat. But really, we wanted to concentrate on a character journey, and I think some of the superhero fatigue that people talk about is because those movies are often not about the central character.

“And so we felt it was a stronger choice for us to say, ‘This is Madame Web’s story.’ She comes out of the Spider-Man comic books, but it’s not part of this other giant thing. It is its own standalone, which gave the freedom to really tell the character story.”
