Is Sony Setting Up Sinister Six Movie? Morbius Director Responds
Director Daniel Espinosa teased that he might be setting up a Sinister Six movie after Morbius. The Sinister Six made their first appearance in 1964'sAmazing Spider-Man Annual #1, and while they have taken on many different forms over the years, the original villainous group included Kraven the Hunter, Mysterio, Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Sandman, and Electro. Although, there have been other famous Sinister Six characters who have popped up in various Spider-Man movies since, like the Green Goblin.
The release of the Morbius trailer was filled with MCU Spider-Man Easter eggs and confirmed an appearance from Michael Keaton, who played the Vulture to Tom Holland’s Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Initially, it was unclear if Keaton would be revising his role, but the inclusion of Venom in No Way Home showcased the MCU’s multiverse connection to Sony, so it was easy for fans to assume Keaton was playing a variant of Adrian Toomes. Many assumed they would have to wait to get the answer to these burning questions, but Espinosa confirmed that fans will be seeing the MCU’s Adrian Toomes in Morbius.
