In the shadow of every hero, lies a villain. Get ready superhero fans, cause a new Marvel legend is arriving and his name is Morbius. Following the mega success of “Spider-Man: No Way Home”, we’re stoke that another Spidey-family character will be making his Marvel Cinematic Debut on the big screen.
Taking on the enigmatic antihero Michael Morbius is Oscar winner Jared Leto. This character has gone from being a straight villain to a bit of an antihero in the comic books. Despite multiple delays due to the pandemic, it’s nice to see that fan enthusiasm is still high.
In speaking to IGN about his character, Jared Leto said, “(Morbius is) a pretty complex character. This is somebody who has a lot of conflict in his life. He’s a guy who’s born with this horrible disease and is really a gifted person. When he was young, he was very curious about science and medicine and decided to dedicate his life to find a cure for the disease that he’s afflicted with and that others like him have, as well. But along the way, all hell breaks loose.”
There are also hints at crossovers with the wider Marvel multiverse. “There’s all kinds of opportunities for villains to meet up and maybe nurture their more sinister intents,” the 50-year-old actor was quoted as saying.

Tom Holland has also expressed interest to see a showdown between Spider-Man and the deadly villain. “I actually think the Morbius film looks really cool. And it’s more scary, that film. I think it could be quite a cool thing… Spider-Man versus a vampire.”
