MORBIUS… does not look bad. Sony’s got a decent hand, here – they have Spider-Man, and now Venom – and they’re going to leverage that as much as they can. For that matter: Jared Leto looks a lot more believable as Morbius than he did the Joker, although that simply may be because the Joker’s a far more well-known villain. For all I know Leto’s taking Morbius in a completely different direction; but only people who have the comic will know, or particularly care.
Anyway: I figure I’ll be seeing this one in theaters.
I. Am. Venom.
Heh.
I know that Sony has wanted to do the Sinister Six thing, though that’s seemingly fallen on the backburner since the Amazing movies died, and they linked up with the MCU. But this is now the second morally ambiguous superpowered character they’re releasing a movie for. It’s possible that they’ve decided that this will be their niche.
Also, this should have had an October release date.
