Thanks to some new set photos from the upcoming Sony/Marvel film Morbius, it has been further cemented that Jared Leto's Michael Morbius shares a universe with some version of Spider-Man.
In the photos, Leto's Morbius can be seen walking down a sidewalk, seemingly nearby a city bus. On the back of the bus is a poster that reads, "Where is Spider-Man?" Earlier thought to be from the set of the Venom 2, it has since been clarified the new photos are, in fact, from Morbius.
There have been many rumors that Morbius will reference the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Spider-Man, but this has neither been confirmed nor denied by either Sony or Marvel Studios. However, the trailer for Morbius seemingly features an appearance by Michael Keaton's Adrian Toomes/Vulture, though it's still unknown if Keaton is, in fact, portraying the same character.
That said, if Keaton is playing Vulture in Morbius, then the film could possibly be moving toward an onscreen version of the Sinister Six, which is a team of Spider-Man's greatest foes.
Directed by Daniel Espinosa, Morbius stars Jared Leto as the titular character, Matt Smith as Loxias Crown, Adria Arjona as Martine Bancroft, Tyrese Gibson as Agent Stroud and Jared Harris in an undisclosed role. The film arrives July 31.
