Marvel Studios has abandoned plans to reboot Blade.
The night-time vampire hunter will not be featured in a solo film
The long-awaited reboot of Blade as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has been permanently shelved, and the character will only appear as part of a team. This was announced by journalist Jeff Snyder on The Hot Mic podcast, citing his sources.
‘He will not be featured in a solo film. He will most likely appear in Sons of Midnight,’ said Snyder, who is known for his proven connections in the film industry.
This verdict puts an end to the long-running saga of what is perhaps the most problematic project of the modern Marvel phase. Since its announcement at Comic-Con in 2019, the Blade film has faced a series of obstacles: the COVID-19 pandemic, writers’ and actors’ strikes, numerous script rewrites, directors leaving, and actors leaving. According to the latest information, only the film’s main stars, Mahershala Ali and Mia Goth, remained attached to the project.
Now, according to new reports, the studio has abandoned the idea of a solo film in favour of presenting the vampire hunter as part of a team. It is assumed that the team could include characters such as Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, Doctor Strange, Elsa Bloodstone, and Blade himself. The cast, director, and release date for Sons of Midnight have not yet been announced.
Thus, fans’ dreams of a dark and mature solo adventure for Blade in the MCU seem to have been dashed once and for all.
