Jared Leto Teases Fictional 'Morbius 2: It's Morbin' Time' Sequel On Twitter

After a recent pair of failed comic adaptations, Jared Leto finally struck a chord with the internet in form of Morbius memes, and he's not ready to let them go just yet.

After the news that Morbius would be returning to theaters for the weekend, the actor went onto his social media to play into the Morb memes with a teaser for a fake script titled Morbius 2: It's Morbin' Time after the most popular joke from the movie — It's Morbin' Time.

Jared Leto joining in on the Morbius memes should by all rights kill this joke, no just world should let him get away with trying to be in on a joke he's the butt of

As funny as the Morbius memes are, I feel bad that Jared Leto can’t really catch a break in comic book movies.

While many were talking about how Leto being aware of the meme is bad, or that Hollywood keeps trying to push itself and lean on meme culture, there were still others with a bigger axe to grind. While there has been little legal action taken, there are a dedicated amount of users on social media that do not let the allegations of sexual deviancy and sending of pictures to underage girls go, bringing them up in threads as part of a campaign to get Leto labeled and possibly un-morbed.

"IT'S MORBIN TIME" jared leto says right before sending sexually explicit messages to a 14 year-old https://t.co/3YqlK4n928

Listen I get morbius being a meme but with the movie actually getting more views and potentially getting a sequel made, I just want to remind everyone that Jared Leto is a known pedophile and abuser.

One Twitter user already thought up the best way to get around this, by making Jared Leto as Michael Morbius an in-universe gag and having another actor play Jared Leto playing Michael Morbius, in a similar gag to what was done in Tropic Thunder with Robert Downey Jr's character.

If Morbius gets a self aware sequel, I don’t want Jared Leto to play Michael Morbius. I want someone to play Jared Leto playing Michael Morbius. https://t.co/leIZ8FK7H4
