Morbius wound up being precisely the film all of us feared it will be, however that didn’t cease followers from having a bit of enjoyable. Because of viral tweets and memes proclaiming it to be the “highest-grossing Morbius film of all time,” Sony Photos truly re-released Morbius in theaters in an try to capitalize on the eye. It didn’t go effectively. The movie was re-released in additional than 1000 theaters throughout America earlier this month however solely managed to gross a mean of $289 per theater. After simply a few days, Sony pulled Morbius from theaters… once more. Not the most effective efficiency from the Residing Vampire, however Jared Leto isn’t ruling out Morbius 2.
Whereas talking with The Playlist, Jared Leto was requested what the possibilities of his taking part in Morbius (or the Joker) once more are.
Properly, because the outdated factor goes, by no means say by no means.
Possibly followers will stay to Morb once more in any case. Jared Leto even bought in on the joke earlier this month by teasing a script for the sequel.
As Morbius is presently sitting at simply $163.8 million worldwide, I’d say the possibilities of Sony Photos transferring ahead with Morbius 2 are a bit of slim. Memes can’t do every part. That being mentioned, Sony has been creating their very own Marvel Universe encompassing Venom, Kraven the Hunter, Madam Net, and extra, so even when Morbius 2 doesn’t come to fruition, it’s nonetheless attainable that we might see Jared Leto play the character in another person’s film.
The primary film adopted Biochemist Michael Morbius as he tried to treatment himself of a uncommon blood illness however inadvertently contaminated himself with a type of vampirism that gave him unimaginable powers and a thirst for blood. The movie acquired principally scathing opinions upon launch, though our personal Chris Bumbray discovered a number of issues to love about it in his assessment. Maybe Morbius will discover a new life on home-media because it was launched on Blu-ray/4K Extremely HD at this time.
Would you prefer to see Jared Leto return for Morbius 2 or has the blood run dry?
