So they didn’t like the script.
I’m OK with this. The script needs to be good first. Then make the movie. That’s how it should be.
Just give Mahershala Ali a sword and start filming, let the story develop organically.
“Just start swinging. Whoever you kill is a vampire. Everyone else gets to be in the next scene.”
Blade still holds up today. Not sure it really needs to be redone honestly.
Because they keep hiring writers who have nothing to do with Blade.
The only person who’s written a good, modern Blade story—Marc Guggenheim—has had nothing to do with this project so far. IDK if he’s “too in” with DC to be a viable option, but it’s odd he has not been involved it when he’s the only obvious option… it’s not like modern Blade has a ton of great comic book arcs.
I say push it back to post X-men, and do the Jubilee vampire arc with Blade as a Jubilee movie featuring Blade or vice versa
Yeah they should put a leather outfit on LaKeith Stanfield, give him a sword, and then just film. You might not get Blade, but you’ll get something great
