Morbius is the movie of all time, you know? They’re not making any of that today. You know why? Because of what they did with Superman. The character, because of the way they pitched it, changed. It was always a Frankenstein monster, and so when they brought Christopher Reeve on as Superman, they made him more of a vigilante. So the villain became more important, which was Magneto, not Morbius. When they brought me back in to do Morbius again, that was to be a very different film. And this was always going to be something very dark and gritty. So that was something I felt would make this a bigger movie. When you think about the movie when it was first announced, Spider-Man getting killed in the mid-credits scene, that was supposed to be the last scene, but then Marvel had this very brief situation where Spider-Man came back from the dead. Then there were rumors he was getting killed, which was also [originally] going to be the last scene. That was a big thing that happened with my character in the first movie. When the movie got cancelled? Yeah. But I said, “That’s great, because then I’ll get my own movie.” Talk about a massive stroke of luck. Well, I was there. When I found out they weren’t going to do a movie, I said, “Well, if you want to kill me, then kill me.” And they said, “No, no, no, we’re going to try again.” And then the second time when I found out that was the final word, I said, “Well, that’s too bad.” And then they said, “Well, you’re not going to get another chance to do anything.” So I called the producers and said, “I’m thinking I’ll go home. I’m going to take a year off. I’m going to give myself a year off to watch movies and travel.” They didn’t really want me to go home. They felt that if I was going to do this movie, I had to do it right. I wasn’t gonna do a good job in this next movie, if I was leaving. They said I would have a chance to do something else if it didn’t work out. And I said, “Well, let me go home.” So I said, “Well, I’ll think about it.” So I went to home and slept and died because the cat Morbius was training assassinated me. I was devastated. If you went back and looked at all the things that went wrong, you’d think, “Well, that’s some bad luck.” I got a lot of bad luck, but a lot of good luck. I think I’m getting all the luck now. Yes, you’ve had some success with both Venom and The Sinister Six. We had Venom and all the villain characters in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Venom was just a big hit for me. The script was terrific and I really felt like it would have been a huge hit. And I had a really wonderful experience on Sinister Six, although that didn’t work out. I got together with the guys at Sony. They came back with this idea of bringing back Sinister Six and I thought, “Well, what’s wrong with this? We made five of these. It’s not that bad.” But they were so disorganized that they couldn’t finish. That’s why I came back for Venom because we could make a quick movie. And when we were making it I thought, “Well, this is not a terrible idea. We’re having a blast with this.”
