Marvel's 'Blade' Reboot: A Turbulent Journey to a Low-Budget Success
Marvel's Blade reboot has faced numerous creative changes, with multiple writers and directors involved. A new report reveals that the script underwent significant revisions, including a version that downgraded star Mahershala Ali's role. The film is now rumored to have a budget of less than $100 million, a departure from the typically higher costs of Marvel movies. Blade has faced delays, with director Bassam Tariq leaving the project and Yann Demange eventually taking over. The script was further affected by the writers' strike, but with the strike now over, progress can resume.
