Forums - Movies & TV - Marvel reportedly planning R-rated Blade movie with Wesley Snipes reprising

This probably means Singer's X-Men is safe. NO ONE TOUCHES MY QUICKSILVER!

Disney will just hire a new unown/less popular black actor for the role of Blade. I feel like they'll do what they did with Ant-Man where Wesley Snipes will play as the original Blade but will need to train a new younger Blade.

That's basically what they said they're gonna do: he's gonna be training his daughter.

I won't mind it too much if they treat it like X-23 (Laura) and Wolvie's relationship in Logan: he has a daughter figure very much in his shadow throughout the film, but he still plays a big role. If they do it like this, I feel he should have a bigger presence than Whistler had in the New Line Blade trilogy, but less than what Wolverine had in Logan.



This is good news for snipes

they have fantastic four and xmen, i hope they stop making movies about characters no one gives a shit and bring the big dogs, Wolverine team up movie with deadpool ? that would be amazing, start fresh with xmen, make fantastic four good, sick of mediocre shit like antman and wasp, captain marvel seems to be garbage also and spiderman deserves better than this mediocre shit we getting.

Hey, the first 2 Blade movies were great, they literally saved Marvel Films from going under back in the day. He's not only the first black hero, but first comic book character to grace the big screen, period, plus it'd be a nice breath of fresh air to see the big dogs finally dipping their toes into R-rated movies (there's no way BLADE can work without an R rating). A Marvel film with balls-to-the-walls vampire action has limitless potential.

Fantastic Four and X-Men are coming as well. They already said they plan on making more Deadpool movies and keeping them R-rated after the Fox-Disney merger.

The film that started it all. Saved Marvel, ruined Marvel, all because someone wrote a directly a half decent vampire film in the 90s.

people are going to over look me when they say Black Panther was the first Black superhero movie






Please let this be true. Seen all of these MCU movies. Blade trumps them ALL.

People must have short attention spans.
