Morbius Release Date Delayed Until October

You’ll have to wait a bit longer to see Michael Morbius grace the silver screen. Monday afternoon, Sony announced it is removing Morbius from its March release date. Instead, the Jared Leto vehicle will now enter theaters on October 8th. The movie was initially set to hit theaters last July before being bumped back to March 19th of this year due to the ongoing global pandemic. Now, it will arrive in theaters a full 15 months after its original release date.

 

Morbius the Living Vampire, of course, being a Spider-Man character who hoped to cure his chronic illness with a failed biochemical experiment. Though he first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #101 as a villain, the character’s become an antihero as of late, in the same vein as Venom and The Punisher.
