Blade Is Still “Coming Soon” — We Don’t Believe You - Error Code Show

0:00 Studios skipped Blade entirely in their San Diego Comic -Con 2025 presentation. Even though the film was long expected to appear this year, despite being announced back in 2019, its absence this year suggests an ongoing behind -the -scenes issue. Blade had originally gotten a release date of November 7, 2025. Slotting into phase 6 of the MCU, but in October 2024 Disney pulled off the release Replacing it with the predator badlands slot Since the announcement multiple directors have came and gone on this I don't know journey with us The project has also seen a lot of script rewrites But it appears that we don't have a finalized creative direction yet In a surprising turn of events, so costume designer Ruth E. Carter repurposed the 1920s period costumes originally designed for the Blade movie for the actual centers movie that came out this year. And she did that. That's kind of that's kind of interesting. A little weird fact there. Maybe that'll win you some trivia points at the bar later. Now, Marvel repeatedly sold and ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

I love Mahershal Ali Okay, that is a talented talented man right there and I don't I can't think of any projects I've I've watched that I didn't like him in number one Number two. I love blade.

2:14 All right that opening scene from the original blade movie is Bloody and I mean bloody iconic. Okay, cuz bloods literally kind of nice I I absolutely was hoping they were gonna get played into the MCU Okay, they announced this thing like you mentioned six years ago when Mahershala Ali was 45 He is now 51 years old 51 years old I believe that Mahershala Ali would rocket his blade as the chat is so aptly pointing out but but He's 51. How long is he gonna play blade for? The movie I think they haven't started filming yet.

2:57 Okay, and so unless they start Filming before February he's gonna be 52 when they start filming blade at least So do I think this movie's coming? No Kevin Feige insists that it is Marvel insists that it is I I just don't Yeah, I I don't know I kind of believe like The Henry Cavill project is actually further along than this one the Not hill divers. Oh my god war hammer 40k. Yeah war hammer I believe that's like further along than blade is at this point. It probably is No Yeah, I I want to believe I really do I just don't You know I Yeah, here's the thing. I think that they in a lot of ways Okay Blade was announced before the Bob Chapek era of of Disney right which really messed everything up. Okay Bob Chapek screwed a lot of things up with Marvel and everything else while he was there, and it's now taken Kevin Feige a couple of years to kind of get the ship righted again. And as we mentioned in our non -spoiler review, right, I am ready to say that the MCU is back. Three of the four last films have been great, right? Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts,

4:30 which both of which you could see on our YouTube channel. and Deadpool and Wolverine, all great MCU films. They've only had one kind of one in there and that was Captain America 4. But I think that that disruption, the change with the Kang plan, everything else that happened. And how do you bring vampires into this MCU? I think you've got a challenge with that. And as much as I would love to see a midnight sun's show or or movie right because I love that I just don't I just I just I don't see it Yeah, I I don't know I I too desperately want this to happen But I mean, come on now it's it's been six years Yeah, I just I I'm with you Who are the Midnight Suns Midnight Suns are another Marvel group all of the X -Men and Avengers, but they are more around Supernatural stuff Right and so a lot

6:01 of the stuff with them was Obviously and I'll bring this up for for our friend Jay because Jay loves this it centers around Various supernatural characters like Ghost Rider Who's one of my favorites blade and of course Jay's favorite? magic Magic is a a prime character the Midnight Suns universe right I was okay here's here's your piece of hope okay they did finally bring Mephisto into the MCU so we have a Mephisto now right so bringing something like Blade or Ghost Rider or any of that stuff makes more sense now That we've got like a Mephisto and some other stuff like I could I could see it Right. I just don't think we will You know I'd love to but yeah, I'm with you.

7:09 I think it's dead. They just won't admit it Yeah, I we and I think we desperately need it. This could be what could save Marvel movies, you know having magic You Yeah, you know Kevin if you're watching the show, we will sit down and write the magic movie for you. Okay Jay has been begging for this movie Since we started this show Okay since and and I should because obviously if you've been around for a while this shows gone through multiple iterations Joy Jay joined the show Right Jay has been begging for a magic movie because Jay loves magic right? Kevin, we're available.

7:55 Alright, folks, let us know what you think. Do you think they're actually gonna get the Blade movie made or is Mahershala just too old and we're gonna have to move on from this for a few more years? Let us know what you think down in the comments below.
