“Morbius” director Daniel Espinosa knew there was a lot to sink his teeth into as he made a movie about Marvel’s living vampire.
The Swedish filmmaker was 8 years old when he began reading comic books featuring Morbius, and watched the complicated character evolve from a small part of the superhero stories to something much more complex.
His new movie brings the character’s dark origin story to the big screen, with Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto suiting up as Morbius.
