What a fricking fumble

Easiest movie in history to make

Any one of you in this thread with a tenuous grasp of the language and subject matter could have made a good script

Cool black guy
Cool evil vamps
Cool gadgets

Cool evil vamps do an evil thing
Cool black guy kills vamps with cool gadgets
roll credits

Just a rumor at this point, but these things always are until they aren't

The latest rumors about the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Blade reboot indicate the movie might be scrapped. However, there are still plans in place for Mahershala Ali to play the character in the franchise.

I heard that the script was Blade being pushed aside for a young female apprentice to take center stage of the movie (Dr strange in the multiverse of madness) and Ali said hell no. What happened since was a stalemate of re-tooling and reworking the script to no avail.

Basically Feige and company screwed the pooch from the jump

Mahershala Ali is too old, everybody knows this. Feige just can't recast Blade with a younger actor for another year or two, until it's obvious enough he can admit they missed their window to do it with Mahershala.

Wesley Snipes already announced this in Deadpool & Wolverine.

A black male hero is not woke enough.

Think about that.

Put Ryan Reynolds and a lousy excuse for Dracula in it.

Yeah, it's crazy that they've effed this up no less than 3 times.

Cant imagine why it's all of a sudden so difficult to turn an unpopular side player who's never once had a popular or consistent ongoing series into a homerun film property.

And yet Disney Marvel still went ahead and pressed forward with Captain Falcon America.

I think they are trying to get rid of Ali BC of the reception Snipes got from D&W

They can give Snipes a proper death while doing the story they want. Ali knows and just wont let it go

Disney isn’t capable of making a fun/cool movie like Blade in 2025 without making some woke trash
