It is a horror, thriller, and superhero film based on a villain. It should be noted that this film is based on Marvel comics.

Morbius, An Anticipated 2021 Film by Daniel Espinosa
Who is Doctor Morbius?
Dr. Morbius is a fictional character in the Marvel world that was initially designed by penciler Gil Kane Created by Roy Thomas. The first thing about him is that he appeared as an enemy of the superhero Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man comic series, ranked as the 19th Great Spider-Man villain.
First, it was a villain who confronted Spider-Man, but then that changed his role in later years. But over the years, he has become an anti-hero in comics. He is also being called the living vampire, Morbius.
In fact, he had a human identity that suffers from a rare blood disorder that kills him. Michael Morbius is a biochemist who transforms himself into a vampire and gets caught between his human and monster nature. He tries to cure blood disease during his life by using the science of experimental vampire bats. In the process, he transforms himself into a living vampire. He is unable to regenerate his limbs, and his recovery time is as much as the blood he consumes.
In general, I understood that there is information about this character, and now it is time to talk more about the elements of the film:
The director of this glamourous upcoming Hollywood movie is Daniel Espinosa, whose previous cinematic works are Easy Money, Life, and Safe House.
Several writers and screenwriters have worked on the film, including Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless.
Let’s talk about the exciting part of this film, the cast. Morbius has great actors and actresses. Since the character of Michael Morbius has not been discussed in previous movies and series, with its unique story, the choice of actors and actresses seems to be brilliant.
Jared Leto:
Undoubtedly, the best choice for Dr. Morbius’s character has been among the Hollywood actors, Extraordinary and exceptional performance in movies such as Suicide Squad, where he played the role of a very memorable version of DC villain, the Joker. In the film, Mr. Nobody was also present, and the film received awards.
As mentioned, Suicide Squad has been in the DC world, and it would be very interesting that Jared wants to be a part of the Marvel world as well.
Matt Smith:
Suppose you are a fan of English films besides Hollywood movies. In that case, you remember his role in Doctor Who, which has multiplied the film’s story’s charm. He also plays a role in the popular series The Crown.
Adria Arjona:
This attractive Latin actor has appeared in the movie Triple Frontier and has added to his fame.
Michael Keaton:
He has unique roles so far: Birdman, which has received awards, Batman 1989, Batman Returns1992, Spotlight, which also won awards.
In the storyline, the movie and what is reported about the film is similar to the comic version that “Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder, and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. What at first appears to be a radical success soon reveals itself to be a remedy potentially worse than the disease”.
Many people compare Venom and Morbius and Spider-Man Venom, who is almost as recognizable as Spider-Man himself. Morbius is unknown to many people by name or image, So this is a big task for the director and the actors of the film.
Morbius has been changed from March 31, 2020, to March 19, 2021, due to the coronavirus epidemic’s continuation.
Columbia Pictures and Marvel Entertainment are the main production companies of the film.
