Kevin Feige, the Marvel Studios President, has confirmed that the Blade reboot is still progressing even with all the pivots within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Whew. Take a deep breathe. Blade is still about to get active!
Feige made it clear that the film would more than likely have an R-rating, keeping the same energy from the previous Blade trilogy.
Another reason to clap. Yes, thank you!
He emphasized quality over speed, and stressed the need to take time to ensure the film meets all of our impossibly high expectations.
Listen, take all the time you need, just not too much, ha!
The reboot, has seen numerous delays and even loss its second director in 2024 alone. Sheesh.
Feige assured fans that the film, starring Mahershala Ali taking over as the iconic vampire hunter, is still a priority for Marvel Studios.
In a recent interview with BlackTreeTV, Feige dished on the possibility for more R-rated MCU films after the highly anticipated “Deadpool and Wolverine.”
“For the last few years, as we’ve been trying to crack that movie, the most important thing for us is not rushing it, and making sure we are making the right Blade movie. Because there were some great Blade movies years ago. They were all rated R. So I think that’s inherent – like Deadpool – that’s inherently the character of Blade.”
Get this, in another interview with Blavity’s Shadow and Act, Feige said:
“We are committed to the movie and we’re so committed to it that we’re not going to make it until it’s right. [It] has been frustrating for us and for some fans that it’s taken a while but we have a writer working on it now. I’ve read half of his new draft and it’s feeling good so far.”
Okay, we’re gonna chill out and relax but this can’t take forever. Feels like we’ve waited decades for Blade to return – oh wait, we kinda have.
