Sony continue to release their new Marvel antihero campaign and this following the rise of the successful Venom (2018) franchise and now we have Jared Leto ( yes the guy who starred as the Joker in Suicide Squad (2018), playing the lead in Morbius (2020).
Morbius is a Nobel Prize-winning biologist suffering from a rare blood disease, who attempts to cure himself with vampire bat DNA, but instead becomes afflicted with a form of vampirism, which sees him develop unusual inhuman traits and abilities, the progressive, gradual mutation of his physical appearance and the gradual degradation of his mental health for the worst.
Morbius, the Living Vampire was created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane and saw the character first appeared as an antagonist in The Amazing Spider-Man #101 (Oct. 1971).Despite his initial status as one of Spider-Man's horror-based rogues, he went on to become a brooding and gritty, albeit heroic and tragically flawed antihero in his own series and other titles. His true identity was former award-winning biochemist named Michael Morbius imbued with pseudo-vampiric superhuman abilities and physical traits stemming from a failed biochemical experiment which was intended to cure his rare blood disorder, as opposed to supernatural means.
The rest of his appearances feature his struggles with his non-human vampiric persona, his insatiable lust for human blood and his subsequent efforts to cure his horrific condition, along with his eventual stint as a brutal and nightmarish vigilante.
