give him a 1 off movie and Secret Wars Cameo. Post Secret Wars any casting is fair game. Just do Midnight Suns or whatever
Yup that’s probably the route they’re taking. I feel bad for Ali, they probably put bruh through hell. It shouldn’t be that hard to make a Blade movie smh.

marvel is gonna have all the wrong takeaways from Deadpool. reeks of Wandavision. "we must spinoff everyone from Deadpool, the people loved that movie. they love Tatum Gambit! They want Wesley back, not a new take with a far superior actor! they love Elektra, can we give her a show?!"

t-dot till they bury me
Damn this kinda bittersweet. Happy for wesley but feel bad for Ali since he reached out for the role. 2 black brehs fighting for one role like marvel aint got other black characters
They're both old as fukk
Unless
They're doing old man blade
Teaching a newer/younger version
And
Who asked for that?

The worst thing about this reboot is that they never had official Marvel promo shots with Ali in them or some photos with Ali showing how he may look like Blade. All the promo shots you see with Ali in them were fan-made.

Also, people here talk about how bad Snipes looked in Deadpool & Wolverine. Still, it would help if you remembered that the Blade Trilogy was made by New Line Cinema, essentially Warner Bros, a competing studio. So, Marvel Studios added some stipulations that Blade had to look different from the original trilogy. Blade always had a fresh razor cut and tats in the original trilogy when produced by Snipes himself. Blade didn't even have his iconic sword, but that could have been a rights issue. They could have given him another sword type to use, though.

Blade rights reverted to Marvel back in like 2012

They just didn't do any after credits in DP3 because Blade 1-3 was New Line. And they wasn't giving them airtime or asking for rights or cutting the check for footage
