Damn, I thought I may have had the scoop on this one. 
I do hate “part one”s though.

Nicholas Hammond, Christopher Daniel Barnes and Morgan Freeman are all anxiously waiting by their phones... 
I need this film now!
Morbius clip.
Which will come first; the release of Morbius or the heat death of the universe?

Meh.
Don't care.
Don't care.
If that was true you wouldn't have needed to post anything...
Meh.
Is the moving of Morbius to take advantage of a generally more lucrative April date (January is a box office grave yard)?
Will Across the Spider-verse Part One ride a wave of multiversal good will from No Way Home (and Dr Strange 2)?
Theres a game next door where you can lay down your predictions, https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/the-box-office-top-ten-predictor-game-2022.309920/

Omicron is shutting down movie theatres again.
Yeah, I don't think that Morbius is moving to April because its a better time of year, the movie was moved to the January death slot for a reason. Its definitely omicron making them move it, they want (or need) it to be released theatrically, and make at least some money back. I seriously doubt this movie would end up doing well even if it released unopposed, in the best month of the year for films, with no COVID in sight, much less in the current circumstances.
I'm hearing talk - since his return in No Way Home was so warmly welcomed - that they're doing last minute reshoots to retcon the 'Murderer' Spidey glimpsed in that trailer to be Andrew "stopped pulling my punches" Garfield's Spidey. IOW, they're merging the Venomverse and ASMverse to set the stage for Garfield's long-delayed trilogy capper.
Dakota Johnson to play Madame Web for Sony, which is bizarre on two levels.
Firstly out of all the female characters they have rights to (including multiple Spider-Women and Spider-Girls) why pick this one?
And secondly why would Dakota Johnson want to play a blind old woman who permanently sits in a chair and hands out vague prophecies to other people? (And if they're going to completely change the character in order to make her an active superhero, well, read my first point again.)

I guess if they are going with the Julia Carpenter version, it allows them to dodge the issue that Cassandra Webb is a mutant.
Because Sony.
I hope it comes out after Silver and Black
Huh. Until I read the article, I just assumed she was cast to voice Madame Web in the upcoming Across the Spider-Verse but I see now that's for a live action film. That is odd.
