Talk about a mixed bag of emotions regarding the Blade franchise — good grief, Charlie Brown. It’s now been seven years since Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige made the Comic-Con announcement that there would be a Blade reboot starring Mahershala Ali as the famed Daywalker, a role made legendary by Wesley Snipes in the late 1990s through early 2000s. Since that announcement, however, there has been virtually no movement on the project, save for actress Mia Goth admitting she did at least undergo at least one screen test with Ali and also had her costume fitted — also pointing out the script had the film set in the 1920s. Other than that, it’s been uncomfortably still, and it will reportedly, unfortunately, stay that way going forward, as Marvel Studios sucks what’s left of the blood out of the project, at least the version we were all initially promised, as Goth explained recently.When asked about the fate of his Blade film in late 2025, Ali had no answers, because clearly there were none to be had, though Feige did make it clear Marvel Studios is “committed to Blade” and “love Mahershala’s take on him”, leading to the good news that he’ll get his first shot at the role in Midnight Sons.
