Jared Harris Reveals Financial Motive Behind 'Morbius' Role

The actor candidly admits he joined the Marvel film to pay his mortgage, citing the need for a paycheck.

Jared Harris starred in the 2022 film 'Morbius' primarily to pay his mortgage, as he explained in a recent interview.
Harris played Dr. Emil Nicholas, a mentor to Jared Leto's character, in the critically panned Marvel movie.
The film, which was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, received poor reviews and holds a 15% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Harris suggested that a more humorous approach could have improved the film's reception, noting that superhero movies often benefit from a lighter tone.
