The continuous delays and obstacles suffered by the film, added to the poor reception of his latest feature films (with the exception of Deadpool and Wolverine) have caused Marvel to put the project aside a bit.
Things have been looking worse and worse, especially when at the recent New York Comic Con Marvel has not made even the slightest allusion to the state of Blade.
Marvel delays production of Blade indefinitely
Like a chronicle of a death foretold, Marvel Studios has finished confirming what we all feared with the long-awaited film.
As collected Discussing Film, Marvel has chosen to indefinitely delay the production of Bladewhich no longer has a release date within its release calendar.
Pandemics, strikes, directors leaving… There have been many obstacles that the project has encountered along the way. If we add that it is said that Mahershala Ali threatens to leave the film precisely due to Marvel’s lack of attention, the days were numbered.
To this we must take into account the very good reception of the fans with Deadpool and Wolverineespecially for Wesley Snipes’ surprise cameo as the vampire slayer.
Seeing the actor return to his iconic role has made many wish that Snipes would be brought back for the next MCU projects. The interpreter himself already said it in Ryan Reynolds’ film: there is only one blade.
With the project paused indefinitely, it remains to be seen if Marvel will revisit the possibility of making a movie. Blade and, if so, whether everything will be restarted from scratch to bring back to Wesley Snipes leaving out Mahershala Ali. For now we will have to be patient.
