well, good luck with the project- who will be the antagonist for this film? I hope it's not a generic corporate boss.
I also hope that none of Blade's antagonists are used.

Yeah, if they had announced Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock or Jared Leto as Morbius in "Far From Home" it would be seen as good casting.
Morbius may have more potential for a standalone, since he has not been as connected to the Spider-Man comics as Venom, and he has had solo stories in the 70s, 90s and current decade, but he doesn't seem to be a character in high demand or to fill a need.

Morbius is a good choice because he's an obscure character with a cool concept that knows Spidey but isnt super dependant on him.
Right now it depends on whether they could do anything interesting with the concept but that's true of anything (Iron fist and inhumans wave hello).
Morbius could work if they just made him look weird and ran with the concept. Just make it really weird.
Unfortunately, I bet that this will be very watered down.
Morbius works better on his own than venom. Morbius can feature blade and teaming up for a next film. Morbius didn't real suit spidey world
Exactly. Except for the 'very good actor' part. I haven't personally seen evidence of that. I've seen him be decent and serviceable for a story.... but nothing so amazing that it'd be worth the controversy and headaches. He strikes me as a fine supporting actor or background guy... but I must have missed the great performances that somehow make him a stand out lead character...
I found a really great fan-made movie poster mock-up.
I only know of Morbius from the 90's cartoon. Didn't he drink blood through weird suckers on his hands? Or am I remembering wrong?
He's an Oscar winner, and the main disagreements with whether he deserved the award were political (is it right for a cis man to play a transgender woman in the 1980s?) rather than about merit. He was also the lead in one of the most acclaimed films of the twenty years: Requiem for a Dream.
They're big gets the way the film is, though I'm pretty sure they'd have been on board with package deals (IE- the promise of a smaller part in one film, and then a solo film, the deals Boseman and Holland got prior to Captain America; Civil War.)
