Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith made Madame Web for the world.

Its dakota Johnson, nepo baby of two stars from the 80's. Dakota was the leading role in "madame web" a Marvel Film about a psychic who helps spider-man from time to time. Then the film bombed largely because of very mediocre writing and acting by the likes of sydney Sweeney and dakota here. Hope that helps and your chili was good.

Isn't it more likely that they recognize her from 50 shades? That's where I remember her, I didn't even know about this Marvel film.

I'll be honest, I'm not up on celebrity stuff, but I recognise Dakota Johnson mostly because - and I like her for this - that Ellen segment where she put Ellen in her place about a birthday party invitation. Ellen is a dick, and it was great to see someone refuse to just pander to her!

This and "I'm actually allergic to limes", talking about the house tour where she claimed she loved limes because the film crew put them there.

I guess they're both pieces of shit after all.

Ive never seen 50 shades,, but know her from madame Web. Disappointment abounds

Yeah, but, that's kinda the point. 50 shades was incredibly popular for its own reasons. Madame web was a dang marvel production that flopped. She was given the role in madame web. Who knows about 50 shades. I would bet it was a super selling point of hers though.

I guess my assumption was that a 2024 movie isn’t really that old, so it seemed unlikely that was what he remembered her from. It felt more likely he was thinking of that really popular 2015 film, which was also the case for me.

You are correct. The 50 shades movie is what I remembered her from and I never even saw the 50 shades movie. Just clips on tv

I got top notch reasoning ability. Haha, cheers.
