Will we ever see Blade again? If Wesley Snipes has anything to say about it, the answer is yes.
Snipes took to Twitter to stay Blade is still a possibility — at least for him.
“When it comes to another BLADE, there’s always a possibility,” Snipes said.
Wesley Snipes then followed up the tweet with, “Balls in Marvels court…”
Snipes starred in the Blade franchise back in the 90s which netted over a billion dollars in revenue.
It’s rumored/speculated Blade may show up in some form on the Marvel Netflix series, quite possibly as a female version.
