Jared Leto takes to social media to tease the new Sony Pictures Spider-Man spinoff Morbius movie, which sees him star as the titular character, a scientist turned vampire.
Leto posted the following image on Twitter noting, “1 week down…11 to go… Get Ready.”
The pic features a look at a clapperboard with the film’s logo, and the film’s social networks have also launched on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Leto has also posted video announcing filming has been underway, “It’s pretty fun. Can’t wait for you guys to see what we got cooking.”
Morbius has a July 31, 2020 release date directed by Daniel Espinosa also starring Adria Arjona and Jared Harris.
No plot details are known but we can guess that similar to Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock and Venom, Jared Leto as Morbius will be more of an anti-hero than a straight up villain.
In the comics, Dr. Michael Morbius has a rare and fatal blood disease, and when he attempts to find a cure becomes Morbius the Living Vampire and has numerous run-ins with Spider-Man.
