Last July, Marvel Studios not only announced they were moving forward with a new Blade movie but revealed that two-time Oscar-winning actor Mahershala Ali would be portraying Eric Brooks and took to the stage at San Diego Comic-Con.
It’s almost a year later and we still don’t have an idea of when filming will begin, despite fan speculation of release in October 2021, Marvel has yet to announce a director or a screenwriter while other projects such as Guardians of The Galaxy 3, Ant-Man 3, and Deadpool 3 seemingly further along in development making more sense for that October spot. An in-house draft goes back to 2013 but it was unknown if that version was a continuation with Wesley Snipes in the role or meant as a complete reboot. We also have no idea if they’ve completely scrapped that version as many early in-house drafts don’t even up being the versions made.
