Sony Pictures has dropped a new featurette for Morbius that continues to tease the Living Vampire's place in the Marvel Multiverse following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Trailers have indicated that this movie will connect to the MCU, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man franchise, and The Amazing Spider-Man series. While there's been speculation in recent days that most of those teases have been cut, the studio still seems to be hinting that Morbius is going to be a key part of whatever this live-action Spider-Verse is.
Once upon a time, it looked like Tom Holland's Peter Parker would be part of two worlds, but Spider-Man: No Way Home didn't set anything up, and if those plans changed, Morbius probably did as well.
"In the film version of Morbius, he's part of a much larger universe," Leto teases in the video below. "The multiverse has officially opened and there's all kinds of opportunities for villains to meet up." There's also a pretty direct reference to Venom, so if nothing else, it's safe to assume this character exists in the same reality Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock currently calls home.
"One of Marvel's most compelling and conflicted characters comes to the big screen as Oscar winner Jared Leto transforms into the enigmatic antihero Michael Morbius," reads the synopsis. "Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. While it seems to be a success, a darkness inside him is unleashed. Will good override evil - or will Morbius succumb to his mysterious urges?"
The cast of Morbius also includes, Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, , and Tyrese Gibson. After a number of delays, the movie finally arrives in UK cinemas on March 31 and in the U.S. on April 1.
