00:00We'll see what happens but uh you know I think uh I don't know and I think Morbius
00:07Spider-Man that that's a meeting that has to happen.
00:10I do love horror, I love elevated horror, elevated genre in general and I think that's
00:30what makes this different.
00:31It's a big Marvel movie but also has elements of horror, it's a little darker and scary
00:36and uh that that's you know kind of makes it stand out in the crowd I think.
00:40Yeah you know I think what's really interesting about the genre is that as a form it allows
00:45you to be quite um almost like Shakespeare does.
00:50You can be quite big, you can make quite bold choices because the universe is in itself
00:54quite big so you can be quite bold with the brushstrokes that you throw at the canvas
01:01as it were for the less boring analogy um and you know there's there's um I think I
01:08think there's a lot of interesting parts being written by a lot of great writers and a lot
01:13of great directors are gravitating towards that sort of universe.
01:17I love playing Michael Morbius, I love the fact that I got to interpret this character
01:22for the first time.
01:23I don't look down on this movie, I don't look down on the character, I don't apologize for
01:28it.
01:28I put it up alongside anything else I've ever done in my life and uh uh I think audiences
01:34deserve from me my very best and I did my very best in this film as best as I could.
01:40I worked as hard as I could to bring this character to life, it's very it has a transformation
01:45that was very challenging and for me creatively exciting but uh no I mean I I think that you
01:52know the best of Marvel, the best at DC stand alongside the best of any other film.
01:56I think it's ridiculous to suggest otherwise.
02:04In almost all Spider-Verses or or you know the the verses that that existed in in the
02:10Marvel Universe if you read the comic books the whole idea of those kind of uh of that
02:15kind of the Marvel string theory if you would call it it's very related to you know if you
02:20remember uh the the the alternative Seinfelds you know is is is that you have like a world
02:27where you have the same characters and and and it's all of the characters but they are
02:32slightly different you know so in almost all the verses you have a Spider-Man but they
02:39will be different you know in the in tone.
02:42That's not quite the way that the kind of Marvel Cinematic Universe universe are approaching
02:47the the idea then you have the second kind of a legend which is about the totem is that
02:53in all universes that there is a spider totem so which means that in all universes there
02:58have to be a Spider-Man.
03:00We'll see what happens but uh you know I think uh I don't know and I think Morbius Spider-Man
03:08that that's a meeting that has to happen.
03:10You know once you make a movie like this once you make a Marvel movie I think the second
03:15you finish the movie it's no longer yours it it almost never feels yours you you you
03:20have a responsibility to sort of make this movie for the fans and I think that's what
03:26we what we did so I felt it I was I was feeling the pain I was like I just want them to see
03:32it I want them to enjoy it and I and I want them to be introduced to Michael Morbius or
03:37reintroduced to Michael Morbius and and to meet Martine and to meet Milo and you know
03:44I'm very proud of the film that that Daniel made.
03:47I have increased strength and speed in some form of that radar what else can I do?
03:54If you think of his power his power one of his powers are echolocation and we the first
03:58time we saw it Noah was in the um you know Ben Affleck's Daredevil you know and then
04:04and there what we always have done is that the people that have echolocation have been
04:08blind so it's always been like this representation of a dark room and then you have some kind
04:13of wave that goes through it and you can see things in the dark room but what happens
04:18if you see if you are a seeing human being because then you have to kind of adapt that
04:22kind of next you know your third eye if you would call it upon the you know visions of
04:27how you really perceive the world you know so then I thought psychedelia man or you know
04:34you you know that kind of vibe so so so then I thought okay it has to become psychedelia
04:40and then I started you know I'm a big comic book lover so I always loved of how they drew
04:45powers you know so then you know I was watching Pokemon and I was like I like that I like those
04:52waves I like those colors you know I like that kind of expression and then we put that together
04:57and and started working out this this idea of the psychedelic version of the third eye.
05:05Just accept who you are.
05:09The bad guy.
05:10You know I love that kind of that that ambiguous place between good and evil that that that we
05:17dance in and I think that's exciting it there's some complexity there and I'd like to continue
05:22down that path for sure.
05:23Well I think whoever you play with you sort of on some level you you you you agree with
05:29them because you're you're investing in their train of thought a bit you know what I mean and
05:34you can't really judge them too much I I find you know because you've got to be on their side
05:39bad or good particularly if they are bad you've got to convince everyone that they're truthfully
05:44bad but I suppose you know the interesting thing about it is is can you find something
05:49in there that people latch on to whether they disagree with him or not and still like.
05:53You know I hear people talk talk about Marvel DC but I think look there are great actors
05:58great directors great writers great artists great you know creative people on either side
06:06and you know a lot to enjoy with with with either side.
06:10You know the rivalry is not such a bad thing a little competition goes a long way and it
06:15really help it pushes people to work harder to dig deeper and so I think that audiences
06:22probably benefit from that and I love Zack I love the the the Snyder verse and you know
06:28I hope they keep on on putting material putting work out.
06:31Jared is obviously you know he's had 20 odd years at a really high level and thrown out
06:37some great performances in uh many many films so it was um fantastic yeah yeah he um you know
06:44he had he's obviously he's got a very invested process and it was really interesting to sort
06:48of be part of that um yeah it was a it was a pleasure to to to see him work with.
