Out of all the Marvel movies in history, Morbius marks the first film in recent times to return to theaters after its initial run.
Jared Leto’s Morbius was met with poor critical reviews, and Marvel fans turned the movie into a meme. As a result of “it’s morbin’ time,” Morbius is returning to over 1,000 theaters:
After weeks of memes about the film, ‘MORBIUS’ will return to over 1,000 theaters tomorrow.

It appears that Morbius is returning to theaters due to Sony believing that the undying surge of memes and popularity regarding the movie equals the want for more tickets. Nonetheless, fans are signalling confusion and more.
Controversies surrounded Morbius after Sony reportedly removed all mentions of Spider-Man in the movie’s infamous post-credit scenes.

While Sony has yet to confirm if Dr. Michael Morbius lives in the same universe as any Spider-Man superhero, fans were rightfully under the impression that Andrew Garfield would respectfully be the Spider-Man of this timeline.
Nonetheless, the removal of Adrian Toomes/Vulture (Michael Keaton) stating that he’s out for Spider-Man means that Andrew Garfield has slim to no chances of returning as Spider-Man.
Given that Sony Pictures are investing their Marvel future into Madame Web and El Muerto with virtually unknown characters, it’s a sad speculation that Garfield has no future with Sony’s Marvel plan.
Andrew Garfield reportedly turned down the role of Spider-Man before taking his current break from Hollywood. Now, with the return of Morbius to over 1,000 theaters, it’s clear that Spider-Man is a lost figure within the Marvel collection of Sony’s universe.
