Marvel’s Kevin Feige thinks it would be “cool” to revisit Blade

June 28, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Since Marvel reacquired the rights to Blade, we’ve heard several rumours that the Daywalker could be set to make his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut. There’s been several reports about a potential Netflix show, talk of a female Blade movie, and even Wesley Snipes has got in on the act, claiming that he’s had talks with Marvel about returning to the franchise.

Well, speaking to Arrow in the Head, Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige has revealed that while there aren’t any current plans for Blade, he thinks it “would be fun” to revisit the character at some point in the future.

“We think it would be cool,” said Feige. “Someday. My tenure at Marvel started 17 years ago, and there were two things that sort of launched the modern era. One was X-Men, which was the first thing that people said, “‘Oh, there’s life here.’ But a few years before that, there was Blade. A character nobody had heard of at all, had only appeared in a few issues of Tomb of Dracula or something, turned into a big franchise. That was always a great lesson for me, where you go, ‘It doesn’t matter how well known the character is, it matters how cool the movie is.’ Which, many years later, would be the reason we do Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange. I think Blade is a legacy character now, and I think it would be fun to do something with him one day.”

Would you like to see Blade introduced into the MCU, and who would you cast as the Daywalker? Let us know in the comments below…
