For the past few months, ex-Blade star Wesley Snipes has been vocal about his displeasure with Marvel’s decision to recast his iconic character in the franchise. This week, Snipes turned his attention to his Blade: Trinity co-star, Patton Oswalt, sparking further controversy.
Snipes took to Instagram to express his frustrations, posting a cryptic message that seemed to call out Oswalt directly. He wrote: “Lordy Lordy Lordy, u mean to tell me PO was a ‘Pinocchio’ all along… and that’s the so-called ‘reliable source’? Well now ‘baby wipe’ anyone? #Blade #MarvelStudios #daywalkerklique
The post has left fans speculating about the underlying tension between Snipes and Oswalt, as well as the broader implications for the Blade franchise. Snipes, who portrayed the titular vampire hunter in the original Blade trilogy, has been openly critical of Marvel Studios’ decision to reboot the character with a new actor.
While Marvel has yet to respond to Snipes’ latest comments, the actor’s dissatisfaction with the franchise’s direction is clear.
