When referring to movies, Morpheus was a character in 'The Matrix'. Have a look here if you wish to look more on that:

Though, if you're talking about the Greek God then:

Morpheus was the god of dreams in Greek mythology. According to some ancient sources - such as the Roman poet Ovid - he was the son of Hypnos, the god of Sleep. Morpheus briefly appears in Ovid's Metamorphoses: "King Sleep was father of a thousand sons -

indeed a tribe - and of them all, the one

he chose was Morpheus, who had such skill

in miming any human form at will.

No other Dream can match his artistry

in counterfeiting men: their voice, their gait,

their face - their moods; and, too, he imitates

their dress precisely and the words they use

most frequently. But he mimes only men..." Ovid therefore suggests that Morpheus only sends images of humans in dreams or visions, while his brothers Phobetor and Phantasos are in charge of depicting dream images of animals and inanimate objects. Together these three sons of Sleep - Morpheus, Phobetor, and Phantasos - rule the realm of dreams.
