The development of the next Blade film under the Marvel Studios umbrella is chaotic. The feature film has been changed everywhere, but should keep its villain.
At some point we no longer know where to stand with Marvel and the current projects are more or less complicated. Some move forward, others move backwards or even stop. Among the cursed films still unfinished is the new Blade without Wesley Snipes. The feature film has been something of a roller coaster ride for months, with production never seeming to end. It’s passed through many hands so far, but there’s good news about one aspect of the cast.
Mahershala Ali would face a villain in Marvel Blade
The new Blade movie may be good, but right now it’s a nameless mess that seems completely out of Marvel Studios’ control. So far there have been two directors and at least five screenwriters for the feature film. A game of chairs that only slowed down production and could have cost the house of superheroes dearly. Because of all the problems, Mahershala Ali, who will replace Wesley Snipes, almost threw in the towel. Actor Aaron Pierre (Mufasa: The Lion King) is clearly no longer associated with this Blade, which is scheduled to be released in November 2025. Have other rats abandoned the Marvel Studios ship?
Maybe so, but according to Daniel Richtman, whose information should be taken with a grain of salt, Mia Goth would still be in the cast. The actress, who starred in A Cure for Life, the remake of Suspiria and the X/Pearl/MaXXXine trilogy, would still be seen in Marvel’s Blade as the major villain , the vampire Lilith. A role that seems tailor-made on paper. Furthermore, the man stated that the film would be set in the present. And not in an older or futuristic time. The presence of Mia Goth calls Blade’s final scenario into question.
If we are to believe the words of diversityFor a while, Marvel’s history was entirely focused on at least three female characters. To the point that he really puts Mahershala Ali to shame. It is unknown if this version still exists, but with the – yet to be verified – confirmation from Mia Goth, it could be the case. If we write this scenario, we’ll find Nic Pizzolatto if he hasn’t disappeared by now. The creator of the HBO series True Detective.
