10 Actors Who Must Play Spider-Man Villains In The MCU

10. Kevin Bacon As Morbius The Living Vampire

Real Name: Dr. Michael Morbius

First Appearance: The Amazing Spider-Man #101 (1971)

Alternative: Evan Peters

Two polar opposite choices here - do you go for the creepy presence and imagination of Kevin Bacon as a vampire, or go with the subtle menace of American Horror Story's Evan Peters? It completely depends if you want a frightening older version of Morbius the Living Vampire, or stick with the Holland era of a younger cast.

Morbius has to get his time to shine in the MCU and is a great way to introduce us back to the idea of vampiric Blade - a forgotten Marvel entity. Director David S. Goyer had originally included a masked version of Morbius at the very end of the original Blade, meaning he would have been the main villain of Blade II.

The inclusion of Morbius in a Spider-Man solo could not only offer a welcome tangent to a more obscure comic book character, but it already has a ready made storyline from Spider-Man: The Animated Series where the doctor was transformed into a "living vampire" by a vial of Peter's blood. Morbius then went on to be the main villain of the next four episodes, proving you don't have to be confined to Transylvania to make the character work.
