Okay, let's be honest. We've all asked ourselves this question, haven't we? When, oh WHEN, will Morbius finally grace Disney Plus?
It feels like we've been waiting an eternity. Is it ever actually going to happen?
The Morbius Mystery
The thing is, it's complicated. Morbius is part of Sony's Spider-Man Universe, not directly under the Marvel Cinematic Universe umbrella. It's like that cousin you only see at Thanksgiving – related, but definitely doing their own thing.
Disney Plus is usually the home for MCU movies. So, where does that leave our favorite living vampire?
Streaming Services Tango
There's a dance happening between Sony and other streaming platforms. Initially, Netflix had a deal with Sony to stream their movies after their theatrical run and home release.
However, that deal has evolved. It's a whole complicated web, much like Spider-Man's, honestly.
Now, Disney does have a deal with Sony. This agreement allows some Sony titles, including Spider-Man movies, to stream on Disney Plus eventually. But Morbius? It's still up in the air.
The "Morbius Sweep" Hype
Remember the whole "Morbius sweep" thing? The internet went wild with memes and ironic appreciation. It was...a moment.
Did the online buzz impact the potential for it landing on Disney Plus? Who knows! Maybe it made Disney think twice. Or maybe it made them think, "Hey, free marketing!"
It's all speculation, but that's half the fun, right?
My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves)
Here's where I might lose some of you. And that's okay!
Maybe...just maybe...Morbius isn't a perfect fit for Disney Plus. I know, I know, gasp!
Disney Plus has a certain vibe. Family-friendly, generally uplifting. Morbius, with its darker themes and somewhat questionable plot, might feel a little out of place.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the meme-ability. And I respect anyone who genuinely enjoys the movie!
But perhaps it belongs more on a platform that embraces the slightly weird and unconventional. Like, I don't know, Hulu? Or even remains on a service like Netflix?
The Waiting Game
Ultimately, when Morbius lands on Disney Plus (or any streaming service), depends on deals and distribution rights.
It's a waiting game. A very, very long waiting game.
Until then, we can keep re-watching the trailers. And make more memes.
What Now?
So, what can we do while we wait? Keep refreshing the Disney Plus homepage? Probably not the best use of your time.
Maybe watch another Marvel movie. Or dive into the world of comics.
Or, you know, re-watch Morbius on whatever platform you can find it on. Embrace the *Morbius* experience!
In the meantime, keep the faith. Maybe one day, Michael Morbius will find his way to the House of Mouse. Or maybe not. Only time (and corporate negotiations) will tell.
