Jared Leto believes Morbius will be the perfect movie for audiences once theaters are safe as the upcoming Sony-Marvel movie recently faced another COVID-19 delay.
Like many major tentpole films, Morbius has faced several delays in the last year due to COVID-19. However, we have already gotten our first glimpse at the upcoming film that will explore the origin story of one of Spider-Man’s biggest villains that has yet to appear on the big screen.
Despite several release date delays, Jared Leto told Deadline that he thinks Morbius will be a must-see on the big screen once COVID-19 is under control and theaters are safe for audiences again:
“I think it’s going to be kind of like the perfect, hopefully on the end of COVID, Post-COVID, film for people to enjoy, ‘Let’s just go to the theater, have some fun, and enjoy a big Hollywood movie. Talk about a fun movie. I loved it…. You go from being like this frail person whose at the end of his life to being this incredibly vibrant, healthy person. And then of course things start to change, and there’s a price to be paid. So that’s a lot of fun and there were like these three stages that we go to play with, so I got to wrap up some of what I love to do in one of these huge Marvel characters in this Marvel-Sony movie that had never been on screen before. It’s hard to find one that hasn’t been on screen before.”
