Morbius is a 2022 Sony Pictures Entertainment feature film based on the Marvel Comics Spider-Man villain of the same name.
Jared Leto stars as Michael Morbius, a scientist studying blood disease who accidentally infects himself with a custom illness. Now he's averse to sunlight, has superhuman strength and an unquenchable thirst for blood. Unlike the undead such as Dracula, Morbius is living vampire, born of science not supernature.
Doctor Who alum Matt Smith plays the film's villain Loxias Crown (aka Hunger). Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Tyrese Gibson and Al Madrigal are also among the cast. Michael Keaton has also been teased in the trailers, probably reprising his Spider-Man: Homecoming role as Adrian Toomes.
Morbius is directed by Daniel Espinosa (Life, Easy Money) from a script by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless (Power Rangers, Gods of Egypt).
