Matt Smith Says Keanu Reeves Must Have Been "on Valium" to Watch 'Morbius' on Flight
Smith joked Reeves must have been on Valium after hearing the actor watched the 2022 box-office bomb on a plane.
- On Wednesday, actor Matt Smith reacted with humor during Brittany Broski's Royal Court podcast after learning that Keanu Reeves was once spotted watching his 2022 film Morbius on a flight.
- Released in 2022, Morbius was a box office failure that grossed $167.6 million against a $75m budget, suffering a steep 74 per cent second-weekend drop before finding a second life as an internet meme.
- Responding to the news, Smith quipped, "Not fucking 'Morbius'," before speculating Reeves must have been "having a moment." He quickly clarified his jabs targeted the film, not Reeves, calling The Matrix star "a legend."
- Despite the film's reputation, Smith gushed over Reeves, stating, "I love Keanu Reeves," and calling him a "guardian angel in life" who is one of cinema's great leading men.
- With a disappointing $38m opening, Supergirl has drawn comparisons to Morbius, cementing the latter's status as a benchmark for underperforming superhero movies.
