Marvel Studios’ BLADE with Mahershala Ali Announced

im so conflicted

 

[Benefited]

We'll see is all I can say.

I was actually more excited for the idea of Wesley being Blade and having a daughter to play the new hunter. But maybe that can still be a t.v show of some sort.

I don’t like this narrative when Jackie Chan ass still running around doing back flips and cross kicks
Or..
Tom Cruise still doing his own “Scientology” stunts for another Mission Impossible
Or..
Liam Neeson/Mel Gibson ass living outrevenge flicks..
Wesley could still do it and just pass the torch to his daughter Fallon to take the reigns...
Not saying you aren’t entitled to your opinion or arguing with you..
But I just hate when people question older black actors doing action movies..
While their white counterparts can keep putting out the same bullshyt over and over/QUOTE]

dapped and repped.

Are the Netflix Defenders shows non-canon then? Cause this dude was already Cottonmouth in Luke Cage

dude is just 11 years younger than wesley they did my nikka dirty

Marvel is thinking 3-4 movies down the road. And not just Blade movies but the other ones he'll be featured in.

He needs to bulk up

 

[Amerikan Melanin]

Wesley Snipes is the most underrated black actor ever.

He’s done every type of movie there is and crushed the role from comedy to action.

He has amazing comedic timing and a believable action base. This brother has HUGE shoes to fill.

[Killer Instinct]

Surprised they didn't go younger but I'm with it.

How are they doing him dirty when Wesley played Blade for 3 movies? This is a reboot under a totally different studio, set in a different universe. Casting him makes no sense.

Last time Wesley played Blade was 15 years ago and he's knocking on 60. He's no longer a box office draw. Mahershala just won two Oscars recently.

 

[Chelsea Bridge]

I’m here for it. He’s a great actor. Looking forward to seeing him in this role.
