Morbius Spoilers: 10 Major New Leaked Plot Details Revealed

10. Michael Morbius' Origin Story

Morbius begins with Michael receiving the Nobel Prize but after he collapses during his acceptance speech, a flashback takes us to his childhood where we learn that he was bullied as a youngster due to his inability to walk. Jared Leto's Dr. Emil Nikos soon proves himself a valuable ally to the young Michael, though, and takes him under his wing.

Back in the present day, it's clear that Michael's condition is getting worse and that he doesn't have long left. While his wife - Adria Arjona's Martine Bancroft - attempts to help him, he's rapidly losing patience and seems desperate to cure himself by any means necessary.

It definitely sounds like Morbius will be a sympathetic character and the fact he's disabled is a big change to the comic books. In those, he was just dying when he inadvertently transformed himself into "Living Vampire" but now the changes he goes through look set to be even more meaningful as he regains the use of his legs and a whole lot more besides.
