Marvel is bringing Blade back to the big screen in the next phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali taking over the role. Stacy Osei-Kuffour (“Watchmen”) was recently brought on board to write the script, and last we heard, Bassam Tariq (Mogul Mowgli) was in talks to direct the character’s return to the big screen.
When can we expect to see it? Well, according to a tweet from the official (and verified) Marvel India account on Twitter this morning, Blade may be returning next Halloween…
In a graphic shared out by Marvel India, Blade is listed as releasing on October 7, 2022. That’s almost exactly one year from today, quite a bit earlier than the film was expected. It should be noted that every other date on this graphic, for films including Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, lines up with the confirmed U.S. release dates at this time.
More as we learn it.
The Wesley Snipes-starring Blade, meanwhile, came to 4K Ultra HD late last year.
The vampire-slaying character was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist Gene Colan, introduced in July 1973’s The Tomb of Dracula #10. Snipes played Blade across three films from 1998 through 2004, and he was played by Sticky Fingaz in a short-lived TV series.
