New theater listings for Morbius points towards the upcoming superhero movie being even shorter than original reports, though not by much. The film marks the third installment in Sony's Spider-Man Universe, having originally been slated for the second chapter before being delayed to make way for the release of Venom: Let There Be Carnage. Morbius marks the official live-action debut of the Living Vampire after he was previously teased in a deleted scene for the Wesley Snipes-led Blade.

Alongside Leto, the cast for Morbius includes Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Al Madrigal, Tyrese Gibson and Michael Keaton.
