What's The Next Spider-Man Universe Movie After Morbius?
After Jared Leto’s superhero debut in Morbius, Sony’s Spider-Man Universe is set to produce more movies and the next one is already in the works. Finally released on April 1, the movie introduces Dr. Michael Morbius, the Living Vampire of the Marvel comics. Morbius was met with bad reviews, unfortunately, with critics pointing out its lack of coherence and structure and its ultimate failure to live up to the hype. Regardless, Sony already has a slate of films to follow its latest superhero release.
Morbius is the third entry of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe — a franchise focused on the characters associated with Spider-Man. Originally, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was the supposed springboard for several spin-off films about Spider-Man villains. However, with the critical and box-office disappointment of Marc Webb’s sequel, those plans were abandoned. As Sony collaborated with Marvel to allow Spider-Man’s entry into the MCU, the studio also developed their own shared universe, beginning with Venom. Although Venom was negatively reviewed, it was still a box-office success, inspiring sequels and other Spider-Man universe movies.
