Rumours of a new Blade movie refuse to die, with Wesley Snipes continuing to tease the possibility of a return to the famous leather trenchcoat. The star recently gave an update on the project to Huffington Post, revealing that conversations āhave been goodā and that the ball is currently in Marvelās court.
"Thereās always a possibility, you know," says Snipes. "Itās in Marvelās hands. Theyāre controlling the pace and the flow with that. Conversations have been good. They see the value in it. We see the value in it. Iām still in shape enough and fit enough to handle the role. Weāll see how it goes. I donāt really know whatās going to happen to it yet."
It was also suggested that Blade might eventually team up with the Avengers, a prospect that Snipes was understandably keen on. āThat would be interesting,ā says the star. āI mean, I know itās in the comic book. It would be interesting to see where they would place him and where he really would fit in. Heās got to bite somebody. I donāt know who heās going to bite.ā Blade vs. Hulk, anyone? It could happenā¦
