Did you know in Blade…

- There were actually three actors that the studio said could play as Blade. Wesley Snipes, Denzel Washington, and Laurence Fishburne were all considered for the role by New Line Cinema. It was David Goyer who pitched the idea of a Blade movie, and he felt that Wesley was the only choice for the character. Wesley was more interested in doing a Black Panther movie, and he didn’t know anything about Blade.

Wesley was the way to go. While his acting was amazing, his martial arts brought an immersion that you don't get from normal actors, even with a training period and professional choreos.
Also, considering Blade was the first property (before X-Men and Spiderman) to be made into a movie when Marvel sold their movie rights to stay solvent - we don't give him enough credit for leading the superhero movie renaissance that's so successful that it's exhausting these days.
This is why I get annoyed when people say black panther is the first black superhero movie
@@S.T_the_TriniI've never heard anyone say that before. But it is the first stand-alone black MCU character.
IRS was the only bloodsucker who defeated Blade.
Solid
This is an underrated as fuck comment.
Bro yes.. 😂😂😂😂😂 💯
Even the joker never fucked with the irs
🤣🤣🤣🎯🎯
Imagine a Black Panther movie way back then, and Wesley is the Mc
Would have been gorgeous.
Yeah I heard about that
That would have been so awesome
@@DSkehan2004 wait heard about what?
@@adekaiwamisou what would've been gorgeous? It would've been comically bad, at least by today's standards.
Blade is a very cool character and I am really excited to see him in future MCU movies. He is already a great character in the comics.
Disney's gonna ruin it
I think Denzel Washington would be a good Blade but I don't think he could pull it off like Snipes Did but that's just me
I would love to see if Denzel Washington could pull it off. I loved him in The Book of Eli and The Equalizer movies. I think Wesley Snipes was the way to go though.
Denzel could be a good one... But Wesley Snipes has a decorated background in martial arts which added a plus point to land the role...
Can you imagine him as blade 😂😂😂
He would be like so y'all just gonna suck blood up in here? HUH?
Wesley Snipes was by leaps and bounds the best choice. I’m not sure who’s cast as the new Blade but he has some huge shoes fill.
@@KrimetTStarKiller I’ll have to look him up. The name doesn’t ring any bells. Do you think he’ll be a good replacement?
@@KrimetTStarKiller Alright cool. Thanks for the info 👍
He is an Oscar winner
Good actor
And first Muslim to win an Oscar
@@crypthulu7900Hopefully He will be a Good Blade but atleast finally Blade in the MCU
This depiction of Blade was so impactful that all that followed always had this look with the leather and shades at night in games and the show. I would not have it any other way.
And now he's cemented his legacy as an Icon of marvel films. The OG
Idris Elba would make a great blade
Indeed so
He would be my ideal casting nowadays. Disney dropped the ball by putting him on some random role.
I remember while in high school in the mid 90s hearing about Wesley playing black panther , I was so excited
Damn, imagine Denzel Washington as blade?
I can see him pulling it off
The book of Eli has some similarities in the costume designs.
I have faith the new blade will be a decent movie
Best casting decision ever
And Snipes turned on Goyer pretty hard by the third one.
That's because the direction was absolute shit
Cause he was his lover in secret. ... 👁️👃🏽👁️
For obvious reasons you seen Blade 3?
Cuz he did not want J. Biels or the other guy I LOVE, to be in it to assist😪 I think that's what got Wesley blackballed. But now I think J. Biels & that good looking actor is blackballed. That's how jobs are for us regular folks as well... glad I'm done working. I couldn't take it then & I wouldn't in todays Topsy-turvy world😇
@@RemoteAdminJayJay2 EXACTLY... but I always love the fight scenes as in Jason Statham. WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM? cuzz he's married now😭💔
Wesley snipes was fantastic as blade .
Denzel I could actually see…he was somewhat a “Blade” type character in “Book of Eli”.
Denzel doing the scene where Blade explains to Karen what he does and why: “Every time I take out one of those monsters, I get a little piece of that life back.” would of been awesome to see him preform.
Masherala Ali will be great as Blade, hope they figure that stuff out soon
I am a bit concern about that... Because of the weak script and no gore violence the director opt out... Mahershela Ali is also disappointed with the story as per report...
Mahershala looks very like wesley so for me its a win he would be a great blade lets just hope disney wont f the story like all the classic cartoon movie they remake today, its so bad...
Bring Wesley Snipes back
Wow !
There is only one Blade
David has fangs in that picture 😂
all GOAT
He was 100% right
They all would have been great in the role
I love Denzel, but he can't scrap in movies at all, even choreographed for him to win.
Didn’t Wesley finance the Blade movies to begin with!?
Also LL cool J wanted to play blade so he lobbed hard for it.
Laurence Fishburne would play a pretty badass blade if I do say so myself
Godfather of the MCU
Snipes nailed this role and made it his own but I’d imagine Fishbourne would’ve been pretty good as blade as well. Better then the new guy they cast anyway. But I guess we’ll just have to wait and see if the new chap can pull it off..
Black panther as in Marvel? Or a biopic on the Panthers?
If it is Marvel that would be ironic that Wesley and Blade get looked over in favor of Marvel's Black Panther being the 1st black superhero by marvel and this whole time Wesley wanted to Play The Black Panther
Imagine a different timeline he’s black panther
Yo, either one of these would have did good. But Wesley killed it.
Honestly only wesley would have been good for it especially with his martial arts skills. And honestly I could picture him as the black panther too. I can't picture the other 2 being super heroes lol
The virgin Black Panther vs the chad Blade
They would all kill the roles
Wesley or Laurence could pull it off… not that Denzel couldn’t but his vibe is different .. Fishbourne would’ve needed to drop a few pounds though. Wesley in the end was the perfect package.
Laurence back then could've pulled it off
Good choice
Denzel?? L. Fishburn possibly but Wesley is STILL The TRUE Blade. He definitely would've fitted in with Black Panther but it was STILL🔥 💣🔥💣🔥😉👍
Wesley Snipes could've played Blade and Black Panther and we wouldn't mind.
What about Michael Jai White
Lawrence would’ve been the best
That's not what I've heard.
WESLEY IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN PLAY HIM! Same as Hughe Jackman is the only one who can play wolverine!
I heard they wanted ll cool j blade that would of been super wack
Wasn't LL Cool J supposed to be Blade...?
Good they didn't get the roll
In an age of race swapping I’m waiting for the Ryan Gosling remake
Hell no!!! I hate that... Black characters should be played by black actors... White character should be played by white actors.... Male characters should be played by male actors and female characters should be played by female actors...
@@khanasif169 100% agree and it’s not racist to think like that it’s just reality. I’m a massive spawn fan and to see a white guy as spawn would just be weird
@@olegunnersolskjaer9189 yeah... spawn is a black character that is why they casted Jamie Foxx for the reboot
@@khanasif169 exactly my point.
So who played him?
robert downey jr
I think you mean Tom Holland
Or Zendaya
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I am GOd
I would have put Terry crewes in at blade. I mean Wesley smiles has the right references, but blade was supposed to be humongous. I am glad for the blade we got though.
Snipes not smiles damn auto correct.
Wesley Snipes is Blade, he could of been Black Panthers father. The only other actor I could see pulling off Blade after Wesley Snipes is Michael Jai White.
