Unfortunately, when one vampire goes full Morb, there is a thirst for blood, and humans are killed. After a bloody incident with Morbius, he vows to find a synthetic cure for his itch for human blood so he will never kill again. While his efforts are noble and worthy, his brother Milo wants nothing more than to get his greedy hands on the serum and live the life of a powerful vampire and kill anyone that gets in his way, thus leading to a climactic sibling fight where someone should've yelled, "It's Morbin' Time".

By the end of April 2018, Sony had approached Antoine Fuqua about potentially directing the film. He expressed interest in taking on the project, and said that if he was to make a film in the superhero genre he would want to make it "something that's closer to what I get excited about." [34] He ultimately chose not to take on the project. [33] Other directors that Sony approached about the film included F. Gary Gray, who considered directing the film but ultimately turned down the role, [35] and Daniel Espinosa, who previously directed the film Life (2017) for the studio. [33] In May, while on tour in Germany with his band Thirty Seconds to Mars, Leto met with Espinosa to talk about the film, [33] and the pair were both confirmed for the project at the end of June. Avi Arad, Matt Tolmach, and Lucas Foster were producing, [8] and filming was expected to begin by the end of 2018. Sony was expected to fit the film into its already-set Marvel release slate shortly.
