Everything You Need to Know About Jared Leto's New Film 'Morbius'
In his latest venture, Jared Leto stars alongside The Crown's Matt Smith in this new, darker Marvel movie.
After a long wait, Marvel's Morbius, led by Jared Leto, makes its box office debut tonight. The film, which was initially scheduled to hit theaters in later 2020, stars Leto as biochemist Michael Morbius who, after an experiment to cure himself of a rare blood disease goes wrong, turns himself into a vampire. Hot of the release of his latest projects House of Gucci and WeCrashed, many are looking forward to seeing the former L'OFFICIEL Hommes cover star take on the new role and seeing how this latest Marvel installment will fit in with other Marvel films.
The new film takes a look at the darker side of the comic franchise, one that lovers of the comics have felt has been missing from the cinematic world. Morbius is directed by Daniele Espinosa. Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Al Madrigal, and Tyrese Gibson star alongside Leto in the highly anticipated film.
In the first trailer for the project, fans noticed a brief appearance from actor Michael Keaton as his character Vulture from Spider-Man: Homecoming. While it has been confirmed that Morbius will be a part of Sony's Spider-Man Universe, it's unclear whether the character will also crossover with other Marvel Cinematic Universe franchises.
After a series of successful box office hits, including the latest Spider-Man film, Spider-Man: No Way Home, fans have high hopes for what Morbius will bring.
