Despite the flop at the box office morbius it has become a viral phenomenon, at the center of many memes, and with its arrival on demand it has also become the most watched movie on VOD in recent days, according to data from Fandango.
Morbius surpassed features like Uncharted, Too Bad, The Batman and Everything Everywhere All at Once in the week of June 13-19. This is a result that could help Sony Pictures’ coffers, as the feature film fell far short of expectations, grossing $163 million in total. Will the on-demand earnings take Morbius off his cinema flop? We will see.
Here’s the official synopsis of the film, which hits theaters March 30:
One of Marvel’s most enigmatic and ghostly characters, antihero Michael Morbius, appears on the big screen, played by Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto. Infected with a rare and dangerous blood disease, determined to save all who are destined to suffer their own fate, Dr. Morbius a desperate gamble. What initially appears to be a success soon turns out to be a potentially more dangerous drug than the disease itself.
