Michael Keaton, who is reprising his role as the Vulture in the Morbius film was revealed in early 2020 when he made a surprise appearance at the end of that film’s first teaser.
Morbius stars Jared Leto as Dr. Michael Morbius, a scientist who accidentally turns himself into a vampire while attempting to cure a rare blood disease. It is Sony’s third villain-focused Michael Keaton’s MCU version of the Vulture in Morbius is one of many contradictory elements which makes it unclear whether the film is set in the MCU or one of Sony's Spider-Man timelines. Spider-Man: No Way Home introducing past Sony characters into the MCU muddies the waters even more.
Now, Keaton has revealed via Instagram that he has recently recorded some dialogue for a project involving the Vulture. The post contains a photograph of the Sony Scoring Stage in Los Angeles and some text explaining that Keaton is doing some “A Toomes” work. “A Toomes” refers to Adrian Toomes, the Vulture’s secret identity. The full post is viewable below.
Keaton hasn’t specified what project he was recording for. It's possible that he was simply doing ADR or promotional dialogue for Morbius. It is also possible that he was recording dialogue for another project that his version of the Vulture has not yet been publicly connected to, such as the animated film Batman for that film.
On an episode of Kraven The Hunter film starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Hopefully, audiences will be seeing plenty more of Keaton’s Vulture after Morbius.
