#blade marvel

Delroy Lindo and Aaron Pierre were supposed to star in the Mahershala Ali Blade film

Pierre left because it took so long for the project to go anywhere (IIRC), and I suspect it was the same for Lindo (Variety, Deadline)

Ryan Coogler's Sinners used sets/blueprints, costumes, intended for said Blade film (Variety 1, Variety 2)

Also, that Mia Goth was reportedly the film's antagonist (Deadline)

All of that, at the very least, sounds like parts of a very interesting whole. As someone who wasn't following the deets on this project at all, uh, hmm.

But this requires people to not be racist,respect black people,and actually genuinely love vampire media/culture,atl black folk,and genuinely love the character. AND GENUINELY ACTUALLY WANT BLADE TO BE THERE. And put in the work and not half ass it.

The problem is nobody can agree on anything without excuses to not have a black male lead superhero film that doesn't cater to fragile racist white nerd feelings. Look I love blade. I want a fucking blade movie. But until people grow tf up and get over themselves about blade. We aint getting shit for him.

Look blade is niche. Yes. But damn how hard is it to ask some alt/gothic black blerds about blade and what they'd like to see?! How hard marvel?!

The problem is they still are catering to a particular group of people with these mcu movies. Im all for a wide audience but i dont feel they really are going for a wide audience if they dont include a black character that isn't sidelined or have 3 sec of screentime. And so far. No black superhero lead movies seem to be talked about or shown or in production it seems. No not small screen streaming series. No. I mean a big screen movie. None that i can see? Black panther doesn't count. Because we got that. Wheres the rest? Wheres misty knight? Wheres storm? Where's powerman/luke cage? Where cloak(and dagger)? Where's FUCKING BLADE?!!!!? Hell ironheart is taking a dive it seems quietly in the background. It's sus.

And no the movie for blade doesn't need to be like the comics. But ffs it's not hard to fucking make a vampire movie.

Barest of minimum.
