Yann Demange is no longer directing Marvel Studios “Blade,” The Wrap has exclusively learned.

The parting with the French-Algerian filmmaker actually happened a while ago and it was entirely amicable. Demange was the second director to part the project after replacing Bassam Tariq.

Marvel veteran writer Eric Pearson, who most recently worked on “Fantastic Four” is currently working on the “Blade” script. Michael Starrbury wrote the previous draft of the script.


quote:

According to an insider with knowledge, getting “Blade” right is much more important than getting the film out. The pressure to produce as much content as possible has been lifted and the studio is now looking to release just two films per year, which gives the team at Marvel Studios some breathing room.

Just kill it already.

They’re going to need a new lead soon.

there’s absolutely no way anyone currently at Disney can make blade properly. The 3 movies are already damn good. Leave it alone and try to fix your trash movies please.

Unfortunately, The Message needs to be pushed.

Yeah this reeks of pushing a message that's not true to the story and the people involved are like "we're out"

It was already leaked by Hollywood Reporter that Ali was pissed that the script was focusing on a sidekick female character instead of blade

Make Blade a female
Make her gay
Make her fall in love with an oppressed Vampire chick that she was hunting

You might think being an iconic black superhero would provide some protection from DEI nonsense. But that would be mistaken

Black men are the ultimate smokescreen for cringe radical feminist. The faster they figure this the frick out the faster we can hopefully pull out of this nosedive before impact.

It's a shame that they can't get this right. You have a two time academy award winner as the lead, and vampires. How can you frick this up? Make it rated R and have Ali just killing vamps with good writing. No female leads, no gay story lines or secret gay romance. No big CGI monster finale. Just a dude killing vamps.

honestly, it is going to be hard to make better blade movies than the first 2 Blade movies.

Those were pretty sick and Blade works so well in 90s goth techno scene.

I just want to see Mahershala Ali as blade. I feel like he would kill it if they got the script right.

This movie will never come out, and if it does, the movie will be utter trash. It's a shame too, because I really thought they hit a slam dunk with casting Mahershala Ali.

It’s 100% why Cavill finally had to dip out of the Witcher. And why so many other artists and writers have left other projects because the people in charge have no intention of honoring the source material.

Sadly, the trend in current day Hollywood and BBC is to actively attack and subvert expectations of longtime fans for the crime of loving a franchise.
