With the release of Morbius almost upon us (January 28, 2022 in the US), IGN is excited to share what we learned on the set of the upcoming Sony film. (You can watch our on-set walkthrough in the video player above.)
When Dr. Michael Morbius (Jared Leto) tries to cure his rare disease by conducting experiments with bats, he does succeed, but in the grand tradition of tragic Marvel Comics characters, the cure has a horrific side effect: turning him into a blood-thirsty creature known as Morbius the Living Vampire. The transformation grants him a host of super powers, including enhanced speed, strength, agility, razor-sharp claws, a radar sense, and more. With these powerful new tools at his disposal, Morbius develops a unique fighting style that takes advantage of his new gifts (or curses, depending on who you ask). We talked to Jared Leto’s Morbius stunt double and the stunt coordinator of the film to learn about how the Living Vampire approaches combat.

They're just trying to hunt him down and find where he is, and just building that atmosphere of–one guy's gone, they don't know where he's gone, and then, you'll see a shadow and you're like, ‘Where is he? What's happening?!’ And then someone else gets taken out. It's just building that environment,” he said. “Everything's quite enclosed, so when he's hunting him down and tracking them through the corridors, it's quite tight and winding, and it just gives you a claustrophobic feel, like they're trapped and he's hunting them down.”
