Welcome back everyone, it's Charlie! We have our first official look at the
Morbius character ahead of the trailer that they're going to be dropping next week,
so well break it down. If you're new to the channel we're also doing a movie
ticket giveaway all you have to do to enter is be subscriber and leave all
your predictions for the Morbius movie if it wasn't clear this is going to be a
spinoff of the venom movie yes it is related to what's going on with their
spider-man plans inside the venom verse we know a little bit about how that's
going to work I'll explain that after I talk about what's going on with the
actual Morbius movie cannot wait to see J Jonah Jameson showing up in a
post-credits scene posting about vampires. It's going to be fun
people are saying that this teaser leaked but I think that Sony actually
dropped this on purpose in advance of the trailer just to get people hyped up
if we're the most part I think people are happy with the CG special effects
because it does look pretty comic book accurate but this doesn't give you a
really good idea for what the actual movie is going to feel like it just
gives you an idea for what he's going to look like it's a picture of him right
after he's gotten done feeding on someone and it's an homage to this comic
book panel like an over-the-shoulder shot he's looking to see if someone
caught him feeding oh my god what's going on here because he can't control
his hunger if you're a big fan of the Wesley Snipes blade franchise way back
in the day there were originally plans to do the Morbius character in one of
those sequels they even have a deleted scene from the first blade movie they
were going to introduce him during the sequel before Guillermo del Toro came on
and did his version of Blade 2 the footage is kind of janky but this is
that deleted scene
I never thought I'd be so happy to see the Sun Rise
I need to get you back to the lab if I'm going to cure you. it's over
you keep you're cure. I've never felt better
besides as long as there's a war going on I still have a job to do.
then your back on the clock.
I'm a big fan of Guillermo del Toro but it would have been cool to see that
version of Morbius if that had panned out if you have no idea who the Morbius
character is or you never read the classic spider-man comics he is a
spider-man character he debuted during amazing spider-man in the early 70s it
was basically Marvel wanting to do their version of a dracula character because
the 70s was a really big time for the dracula character in pop culture so
Marvel just wanted to get in on that Morbius was their attempt in an original
character based on Dracula though but the funny thing about this is because
Sony doesn't have the rights to do the Dracula character Marvel Studios does
because of the way the comic books worked out and where the Dracula
character debuted in Marvel Comics there's a rumor right now that Dracula
is actually going to show up during the werewolf by night moon Knight series
that they're doing and during the Blade movie that they're going to be doing with
Mahershala ali during Marvel phase 5 maybe as part of their grand sharing
arrangement with the spider-man character Marvel will also loan out the
Dracula character for their Sony venom verse to do Morbius stuff with and
sequels if the first movie is successful but the whole idea of Sony doing Morbius
is them testing the waters with other spin-off movies they of course want to
create their own version of the MCU because it's been so successful for
Disney and Marvel and as part of the way the rights with the spider-man character
work they have access to over 900 different characters Morbius is called
the living vampire but he only has vampire like qualities he didn't get his
abilities through the vampire bite like most do he started out as a Nobel
prize-winning biological scientist he had this rare condition that was eating
his cells alive so he developed a treatment using vampire bat;s blood and
electroshock therapy when he eventually tried it on himself that caused an
accident that gave him his vampire like qualities turning him into quote-unquote
a living vampire the way that Sony and the venom verse is setting him up though
is to be an antihero just like the venom character yes I definitely think that
they're setting them all up for a crossover in maximum carnage so Morbius
will wind up teaming up with venom you know because of the Sony Marvel sharing
deal Tom Holland's spider-man will also crossover with them eventually too you
may have also seen the rumors about what they're doing with J jonah Jameson so
Sony controls the JJ character they loaned him out to the MCU for spider-man
far from home for that great post-credit scene I thought it was a great way to
reintroduce the character and also sort of connected
to the Tobey Maguire spider-man era because they kind of skipped over
J Jonah Jameson during Andrew Garfield's run so if you haven't seen it the rumor
is now that Sony's going to use him as an early point of crossover to weave
together all their venom burst movies in the Tom Hollands spider-man MCU movies
so he showed up at the end of that movie so he exists in the MCU now but the
rumor now is that he's going to cameo during the Morbius movie and during
venom two in the same type of role doing the same thing just total posting
about the main character of each of those different movies so you can
imagine him going on and on about vampires existing in the real world you
thought they were fake no they're totally real we have live footage we're
going to air it now is a really easy slam-dunk so
I high-five whoever had the idea to use J jonah Jameson to connect all these
dots together if you didn't see it recently to Sony also created a special
separate real website that you can visit for the Daily Bugle dot net that was the
one that they referenced during spider-man far from home post credits
scene Daily Bugle Dot Net J jonah Jameson has a live report if you go to the
website it's basically him going on and on about all these crazy theories about
why Avengers endgame and the snap happened why everyone came back about
the elementals that Mysterio created how there are weird creatures running around
so Sony is now using as a viral marketing place for all their spider-man
related stuff and that'll probably wind up including venom stuff when we get to
venom two coming out later this year in Morbius later this summer really good
example of how they've used that for viral marketing is that after spider-man
far from home came out the movie was done they didn't shoot any new footage
for the movie itself but they shot a bunch of new promos with JK Simmons
doing his J jonah Jameson thing is if you were in his studio and he was still
reporting on spider-man stuff
J jonah Jameson here spider-man a psychopath wielding powers he has no
right to possess trying to pass himself off as a hero well let me tell you
something kid you're no hero Mysterio that's a hero you are a criminal a
miscreant a masked Marauder a menace
thanks for watching don't forget to Like and subscribe so that's not something
that they did for the spider-man far from home movie that's just something
that they're doing with this new Daily Bugle dot net web site I know there are a
lot of questions about how spider-man is going to figure into all this in later
this summer Marvel is going to start shooting spider-man 3 so are they going
to have some sort of post credits tag in that that will imply how he will
eventually crossover with the venom characters when Kevin Feige made the
announcement about the new sharing deal he referenced the multiverse in
spider-man jumping between cinematic universes in addition to different
planets at the multiverse right now Sony is developing a Madam web movie my
early guesses is that they'll use Madam web is a way to explain how he crosses
universes because otherwise you'd have to use someone like Doctor Strange or
scarlet witch or someone capable of that level of technology or magic and it
sounds like based on the sharing arrangement between Marvel and Sony Sony
has the rights to reference any spider-man related stuff from the MCU
but not the Avengers not the quantum realm or anything like that so I don't
think that the quantum realm is going to be the way that they used to get
spider-man between Sony's venom first in the MCU the Morbius movie was shot to
make it look like it was happening in New York City in venom - looks like it's
shooting scenes set in and around New York City
spider-man is local to New York City even though technically he's in the MCU
right now you can kind of see that they're bringing these characters into
each other's orbits eventually they'll start crossing over probably in advance
of a big maximum carnage team-up movie where they all team up against the
carnage character so most important characters in this movie are Jared
Leto's Michael Morbius character who becomes Morbius the living vampire his
love interest Martine Bancroft who herself becomes a vampire eventually in
the locust crown aka the hunger character played by Matt Smith you heard
it right Matt Smith is going to be the villain of the Morbius movie he's not
quite the exact same thing as Morbius in the comics but he has the same blood
disease that eventually causes him to have to feed on other living things in
order to survive so he's also very vampire like we don't have to wait that
long before they're going to drop the actual trailer that's happening Monday
of course I'll do a Easter Egg video for it and we'll find out what the movie is
actually going to feel like I think we all kind of wondered what venom was
going to be before we actually saw a footage but at least for right now it
seems like they've nailed the look down so everybody just post her reactions
in the comments and let me know what do you want them to do with the Morbius
character inside this larger connected spider-man envenom universe I know that
a lot of people asking if this is going to prevent Jared Leto from ever playing
the Joker again there is a version of the Jared Leto Joker that's going to be
used during the birds of prey movie but Jared Leto himself was actually filming
the Morbius movie when they were shooting birds of prey so we need Joker
stuff that you see happening during birds of prey next month because the
movie is coming out really soon is going to be a body double or hinges off screen
it's not Jared Leto actually being in the movie himself let me know if there's
any bonus videos that you want me to do our big requests for spider-man videos
while you wait for everything click here for that brand-new Doctor Strange two
announcement that Marvel just made and click here for my new Deadpool 3 video
thank you so much for watching everybody stay awesome I'll see you guys tonight!
