The title character was made in 1971 for The Amazing Spider-Man #101. Dr. Michael Morbius’ character is a researcher who has a blood ailment, which he tried to cure. During his experiment, he began experiencing vampire-like symptoms including his trademark fangs, a hunger for blood, and superhuman strength.

While Leto is set to play Morbius, Tyrese is reportedly playing an FBI specialist hunting down the main character. Matt Smith, of Netflix’s The Crown, will play the film’s villain, Loxias Crown, with Arjona playing Morbius’ love interest, and Harris, who also stars in The Crown, will play his mentor.

The film, which started production last week, is slated to hit theaters on July 31, 2020.
