Wesley Snipes’BladeTrilogy has a cult following with a loyal and dedicated fandom. As MCU is set to reboot the franchise with Oscar-winning star Mahershala Ali, fans have long sought the reappearance of Snipes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now, a recent rumor suggests that there is still room for Snipes’ Blade in the MCU.

Nothing is beyond possibility, at least in the multiverse saga.Spider-Man: No Way Homeis a prime example of that, as the Tom Holland starrer movie created the spectacle bringing back Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield alongside their iconic villains. In its essence, the speculation might just come true as Marvel is reportedly planning big forAvengers: Secret Wars.
Wesley Snipes Reportedly Returning as Blade
Wesley Snipes’ Balde return is fairly possible, but theBladereboot has not been in a good light. After the confirmation of the movie, theMahershala Ali-starrer vampire hunter flick has faced several delays. Also, nothing has been revealed about the movie. As of writing the piece, there is no confirmation of who will accompany Ali in the film.

InsiderDaniel Richtmanrevealed about Snipes’ return as Blade in the Multiverse Saga. Snipes’return to the MCU is quite promising,buthis return is not directly associated with Ali’sBlade.Rather, if the speculations come true, he will return in MCU’s huge preparation—Avengers: Secret Wars.
Also, Snipes previously revealed that he is open to reprising his iconic Marvel character. Speaking withComicBook.com,the actor shared his interest in reliving the character again.“Never say never. Long as I’m healthy and in shape,”Snipes said.

“I can rock with them. Yeah, as far as my predictions on if something like that happened in future, I don’t know. I don’t know. It seems to me if it would’ve happened, it would’ve happened already. But hey, never say never. No, [Marvel Studios has not approached me] as of yet. I’m still working on my acting skills. So when I come up as an actor, maybe they’ll reach out and say, ‘Let’s have a conversation,’ or maybe they don’t feel I’m ensemble player.”

At that point, Marvel Studios did not approach the 61-year-oldDemolition Manstar. Snipes has been a legendary action star, and hisBladetrilogy has remained the spectacle of his glorious career.
Fans Went Nostalgic With The Wesley Snipes’ Blade Speculation
Nostalgia works.Spider-Man: No Way Homeand then the most recent MCU’s Disney+ seriesX-Men ’97has proved the essence of revisiting the vintage in the MCU. Although it is unclear the actual reason behind the delay of Ali’sBlade, fans speculate that Marvel Studios’ faith in Ali is questionable, especially after the nostalgia factor worked in their favor.
This looks like they have little faith in the one with Mahershala Ali. They know how much spider man no way home did. The nostalgia bet is on.

But I do hope they also bring back Hannibal King, the original cast. I think you know where I am getting at. 😉

I heard Mahershala doesn’t want a woke script which makes him a side character in his own movie. There’s been tension because of that. The last update/rumor was Kev having the script rewritten.

If this is true, the theater eruption will be bigger than the spider reveals in another Way Home.

Regardless, Snipes’ return could be a huge thing for the MCU, but most likely, it would be a one-time thing. Although much of Ali’sBladeis under wraps, the adventure of the vampire hunter is set to begin in 2025 as the anti-hero is scheduled to appear on the big screen on 26 June 2025.
