A few months back, when Marvel fans were still clamoring for a second full-length Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer, social media was vocally bummed when it was revealed we’d be getting fresh footage from Morbius before another look at the multiversal web-slinging spectacular.
In fact, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to suggest that hype for Morbius hasn’t come close to heading through the roof since the project was first announced. However, that appears to be changing now we’re less than four weeks away from Jared Leto’s debut as the Living Vampire coming to theaters.
As you can see from the reactions below, as Morbius grows ever closer, there’s a genuine sense of excitement and goodwill sweeping across the internet at long last.
Having originally been scheduled for a July 2020 release, Morbius finally hits the big screen eighteen months behind schedule, where it’s hoping to capitalize on the residual enthusiasm towards Sony’s most recent Marvel Comics adaptation.
The first clip from the movie helped turn the tide of apathy significantly, and with the potential of more multiversal crossovers via Michael Keaton’s cameo as Adrian Toomes, along with the name-drop of Tom Hardy’s Venom, audiences will be intrigued to see if any more foundations are laid for the expanding Spider-Man universe.
