The Morbius Trailer Delivers Loads of Teasers

Posted on by

The official trailer for Morbius is here. Based on the Marvel character, the film is part of Sony Pictures‘ greater plan for its line of Spider-Man films.

The film delivers a lot of hints and teasers towards other films including “that thing that happened in San Francisco,” a reference to Venom, a quick view of Michael Keaton who plays the Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming, and pictures of Spider-Man in the background.

Morbius debuted in Amazing Spider-Man #101 in 1971 and was created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane. The character has been both a hero and villain in the Marvel Universe.

Morbius stars Jared Leto as Dr. Michael Morbius, Matt Smith as Loxias Crown, Tyrese Gibson, Jared Harris, Adria Arjona, and Michael Keaton. It comes to theaters January 2022.

Morbius Gets Its First Trailer and Creates a Lot of Questions

Posted on by

There’s high anticipation for Morbius, the first “Spider-Man Universe” film from Sony after the release of Venom. A picture of Spider-Man can be seen on a wall in one scene in the trailer, though it’s a screenshot of the “Raimi Suit” from the Playstation 4 video game.

Jared Leto plays the lead Michael Morbius. Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder, and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. What at first appears to be a radical success soon reveals itself to be a remedy potentially worse than the disease.

The most intriguing part of the trailer is the surprise appearance by Michael Keaton at the end. Keaton played the Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming. At the end of the film he’s in jail and wearing a white suit that’s very similar to this tease. It’s unknown what his role will be in this film or if he’s playing the Vulture again. That latter bit would make Morbius part of the MCU. It’s also a fun wink to Batman and Joker, which Keaton and Leto played in different films.

Morbius stars Jared Leto, Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Al Madrigal, and Tyrese Gibson.

The film is directed by Daniel Espinosa from a story by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless, and screenplay by Sazama, Sharpless, Art Marcum, and Matt Holloway.

Morbius was created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane and debuted in 1971 in The Amazing Spider-Man #101.

Morbius comes to theaters July 31, 2020.
