:yeshrug: Honestly I’m down for someone new getting a chance to play Blade. I’m happy that marvel finally getting Snipes his props. And I’m sure he’ll appear again in Secret Wars but for a new trilogy. We need a new and young actor. There’s plenty of black male actors who can play Blade other than Snipes.
Specifically a young martial arts guy, Ali is a terrible fit, he probably kicks like a coli breh

:snoop:

I don't want Wes back at Blade. Breh kilt it because of his physicality :dame: which his lost due to age.:yeshrug:

If he comes back it should be like what they did in the comic with his daughter, but with less deadbeat father vibes. But that would just be a X23 ripp off

they'd have to lean into the John Wick style (hell which I said this movie should be) to make up for Wesley age the same way it makes up for Keanu not being some super athlete.

I`m just saying keep it to a min just for the sake of wear and tear. Like if I`m not mistaken for like Jackie Chan he reached a point where he altered how he did his films for the same reason (he may be the extreme example since he did his own stunts).

I seen his last couple movies. His muscle memory alone is lightyears ahead of vast majority actors who need several cuts to throw a punch. Seen donnie yen who is about the same age and sheesh :damn:

The funny part is the script they wanted to do with Blade having a daughter that he would train. Makes sense if they were going to bring Wesley Snipes back to play like a mentor and maybe you can CGI one or two fights in the movie. I also think. Blade TV series based on that concept could have worked With Wesley as a lead.

Ali, was already in a show, and we don’t know if Luke Cage is cannon.
