Although it is one of the most anticipated films from Marvel Studios, it seems that Blade It is not going through a smooth development. The new vampire film, starring Mahershala Ali, recently lost its director and is scheduled for release in 2026. However, the studio already has plans for this film.
Thanks to The Hollywood Reporter, we have been able to learn more details about the long-awaited film. On the one hand, we know that the film is set in the present day rather than sometime in the past, and that its protagonist treats Blade like his own. Black Panther.
Furthermore, Mia Goth is still linked to the project, but she is far from the character she was going to play, Lilith. We are waiting to see who he will play following the script rewrite that will take place this summer. The goal is to complete this rewrite next month and, in August or September, approve the new project.
Thus, Marvel will advance with this film slowly but surely. The film aims to be one of the company's most “underground” films and wants to become the studio's big surprise in the coming years. At the moment, Blade is scheduled to premiere on November 7, 2025.
