Marvel had shut down pre-production on their upcoming Blade reboot last month amid the ongoing WGA strike, and today Disney has provided a new release date for the film.
The Yann Demange-directed Blade had been set for theatrical release on September 6, 2024, but the movie will now be unleashed in theaters on February 14, 2025.
Head over to Variety for more big Disney date changes this week.
Marvel’s Blade reboot is part of the latest phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Oscar-winning actor Mahershala Ali is starring alongside Mia Goth (X, Pearl).
Michael Starrbury (When They See Us) wrote the most recent draft of the screenplay, and we recently learned that Nic Pizzolatto (“True Detective”) is now working on the script.
The vampire-slaying character was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist Gene Colan, introduced in July 1973’s The Tomb of Dracula #10. Wesley Snipes played Blade across three films from 1998 through 2004, and he was played by Sticky Fingaz in a short-lived TV series.
