The upcoming film ‘Morbius’ has been generating a lot of buzz among superhero movie fans. One question that keeps popping up is, “Is Andrew Garfield going to appear in ‘Morbius’?” Let’s delve into this intriguing topic and find out if there’s any truth to these rumors.
The Background
‘Morbius’ is a highly anticipated film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. The character, Dr. Michael Morbius, is a biochemist who accidentally transforms himself into a vampire while attempting to cure his rare blood disorder. The film stars Jared Leto as the titular character and is set in Sony’s Marvel Universe, which exists alongside the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man
Andrew Garfield portrayed Spider-Man in two films released by Sony Pictures: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ (2012) and its sequel, ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ (2014). However, after Sony reached an agreement with Marvel Studios, the character was rebooted once again with Tom Holland taking on the role in the MCU.
The Rumors
Speculation about Andrew Garfield possibly appearing in ‘Morbius’ started when set photos from the film leaked online. Some fans noticed graffiti on a wall featuring an image of Spider-Man along with the word “murderer” spray-painted across it. This caught the attention of fans who remembered that at the end of ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home,’ J. Jonah Jameson revealed Spider-Man’s secret identity and framed him for murder.
An Exciting Possibility
Given these intriguing clues, some fans began to wonder if Andrew Garfield’s version of Spider-Man could be connected to Morbius’ story. They theorized that ‘Morbius’ might take place in an alternate universe or timeline where Garfield’s Spider-Man is still active, and the events of ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ films are part of the canon.
While there is no official confirmation regarding Andrew Garfield’s involvement in ‘Morbius,’ the rumors have certainly sparked excitement among fans who want to see a live-action Spider-Verse crossover. The idea of Garfield’s Spider-Man crossing paths with Leto’s Morbius and potentially other versions of Spider-Man, like Tom Holland’s and Tobey Maguire’s, is undoubtedly thrilling for fans of the web-slinging hero.
The Verdict
As of now, it remains unclear whether Andrew Garfield will reprise his role as Spider-Man in ‘Morbius’ or any future films within Sony’s Marvel Universe. The rumors circulating on social media and fan theories offer exciting possibilities, but until an official announcement is made, we can only speculate.
In conclusion, while fans eagerly await ‘Morbius’ and hope for a surprise appearance from Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man, only time will tell if their wishes will be granted. Until then, we can continue to enjoy the anticipation and excitement surrounding this highly anticipated film.
