If you’re still deciding on the perfect date night for Valentine’s Day (14 February 2024), Ster-Kinekor has a plan – which involves Madame Web. So you’ll get to spend the most romantic night of the year in the company of a superhero – in addition to your date!
The pre-screening of Madame Web will take place in the luxurious Cine Prestige cinemas at select Ster-Kinekor sites, where you can relax in leather recliners while the cinema staff attend to your every need. Enjoy drinks and snacks as you are whisked off into the thrilling and somewhat supernatural world of Cassandra Webb.
Madame Web tells the standalone origin story of one of Marvel publishing’s most enigmatic heroines. The suspense-driven thriller stars Dakota Johnson as Cassandra Webb, a paramedic in Manhattan who develops the power to see the future. Forced to confront revelations about her past, she forges a relationship with three young women bound for powerful destinies, if they can all survive a deadly present.
Film vs comic version
Interestingly, in the film Cassie is depicted as an inexperienced clairvoyant in her 30s learning her new powers, compared to the comic book version which is a blind and paralyzed elderly woman connected to a life support system and a “fully fledged” clairvoyant. Directed by S.J. Clarkson, the film also stars Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced and Emma Roberts.
The exclusive 14 February screening will take place at 7.30pm at Ster-Kinekor Cine Prestige cinemas in Johannesburg – Carnival City, Cradlestone, Cresta, Eastgate, Mall of Africa, Sandton City, The Zone @Rosebank; The Grove in Tshwane; Vaal in Vanderbijlpark; Ilanga in Bombela; Gateway in Umhlanga; Baywest in Gqeberha; and at Cavendish and V&A Waterfront in Cape Town.
Bookings are now open, but seats are limited. There will also be some great prizes up for grabs and other treats in store for the loved-up couples.
