>New Line Cinema actually used the Living Vampire Morbius in an alternate ending to the original Blade film. At the end of the film after Blade defeats Frost and the two survivors head to the roof where they look at the horizon of buildings. A distant figure could be seen, wearing a coat and a cloth over his face, with all intentions of it being Morbius. This has also been confirmed by David Goyer in the Blade DVD commentary, calling out the character Morbius by name. The story goes, that director Stephen Norrington and Goyer were setting up the sequel which would focus on Morbius as the villain, but Stephen left the Blade franchise and in comes Guillermo del Toro to make Blade 2 instead. Morbius was dropped and a new version of a vampire was introduced as the antagonist of the film.
