As we head deeper into Marvel Studios' Phase 4, it's become clear that the MCU is about to embrace the supernatural in a big way. Moon Knight and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness certainly appear to be heading down that route, though we got a taste of it in Eternals' post-credits scene.
There, Kit Harington's Dane Whitman prepared himself to unleash the power of the Ebony Blade before a voice heard off-screen warned him against doing so. We'd later learn that was Mahershala Ali's Blade in a scene that marked the vampire hunter's MCU debut ahead of his planned solo outing.
Needless to say, we can't wait to see what the future holds in store for Blade. Could that include a battle with Morbius? Jared Leto has previously expressed interest in the idea his Living Vampire could cross paths with the character, and while it's unlikely when the two anti-heroes exist in separate worlds, we can't help but think it would be cool to see the Oscar-winner clash with Mahershala Ali.
Talking in the video above, Leto once again shared his interest in pitting Morbius against Blade. "That would be a pretty fascinating experience," he admits. "I’d love to get in the ring with him."
Short of Marvel Studios doing some sort of deal with Sony Pictures to bring some of their non-Spider-Man characters into the MCU alongside the web-slinger, we don't bank of this meeting taking place. However, the Multiverse means we never know what could happen in future movies and it would be something of a missed opportunity not to do something with the Living Vampire and the Daywalker.
There are heaps of other foes for Morbius to face, but we'll have to see what happens in that movie before pondering the anti-hero's future too much. Stay tuned for more on that as we have it!
Morbius will be released in cinemas on March 31.
