Will Marvel’s ‘Blade’ Ever Happen?
Marvel just pulled Blade from their upcoming release schedule. After years of delays, the film, starring Mahershala Ali as the title character, was supposed to premiere in theaters in the fall of 2025. Now … who knows if we’ll ever see it at all.
Is Blade delayed or canceled? Will his bizarre cameo in Eternals be the one time we ever see (or technically hear) Ali’s Blade? Why can’t Marvel do horror in the MCU? Could the Blade character appear somewhere else, maybe even a Midnight Sons movie? That’s the subject of our latest Marvel video, where our team of MCU experts discusses the news of Blade’s postponement, talks about where this project might have gone wrong, and what this news means for future phases of the MCU.
Watch our full Blade post-mortem below.
