Blade Loses Another Director! Will This MCU Project Ever Get Off the Ground? | Sean Chandler Plus
In today's video, we're diving into the ongoing troubles with the MCU's Blade project. Once again, the film has lost its director. I'll be breaking down the latest reports, discussing the good and the bad, and examining the overall production challenges. Tomorrow, I'll be back with a follow-up video where I'll pitch who I think could be the perfect director for Blade.
Initially, I planned to cover everything in one video, but there's just too much to unpack. So, this turned into a two-part series on Blade. Don't forget to come back tomorrow for my director picks!
When Marvel first announced the Blade film, I was ecstatic. But now, I'm not even sure if this movie will ever see the light of day in its current form. Recently, it was reported that director Yann Demange has left the project. This wasn't breaking news as it happened a while ago, but it still raises a lot of questions about the future of Blade.
The production has faced multiple setbacks: new writers, scheduling conflicts with star Mahershala Ali, and now another director departure. This is the second director to leave, following Bassam Tariq, who didn't inspire much confidence given his limited filmography. The situation is further complicated by Ali taking on other roles, suggesting potential delays.
Marvel seems to be struggling with development, as seen with other projects like Fantastic Four. They're bringing in bigger names to try to salvage Blade, but it feels like there's more going on behind the scenes. The statement from insiders about focusing on quality over quantity sounds promising, but it also feels like spin.
Blade has been in development for over five years with little progress. Mahershala Ali is now 50, and with filming still not started, it raises concerns about his ability to lead this franchise. Is it time for Marvel to rethink this project entirely?
What do you think about Blade's ongoing issues? Is it doomed, or can Marvel turn it around? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below, and don't miss tomorrow's video where I'll reveal my picks for the new Blade director!

I think either the movie will be cancelled or Mahershala Ali will drop out of the project and they will have to recast. He can’t keep turning down other offers for movies just for this movie that can’t seem to get off the ground. I think either Jordan Peele, Ryan Coogler, Chad Stahelski, Guillermo Del Toro, James Wan, or Mike Flanagan should direct it. We need someone who has background in horror and/or action.

The last time something like this happened was with channing tatums Gambit movie that movie was in development hell for years before it got cancelled unfortunately

@brickdarg6750 3 месяца назад

The idea that "we want to get it right" is absolutely a PR spin. I look at Deadpool & Wolverine, and yes that film has not come out yet so for all we know it could be dreadful, but that is another film that in development for some time. However, there were never reports of cycling writers or directors. Whatever we see in the final project will be close to the original pitch, whereas with Blade it may very well be something completely different than what was originally pitched. I also think that there must be some other issues as to why THIS project is stuck in development hell, because Blade does not really seem like that difficult of a premise to pull off. Unlike with video games, which can sometimes be incredible even after very lengthy delays, movies that are stuck in THIS level of a developmental ditch never seem to turn out well. We'll see it when we see it I suppose, or maybe we'll just see the white flag waved instead.

@cwega2463 3 месяца назад

@Edowin-jz2sj 3 месяца назад

I'm trying to be optimistic that Marvel is scrapping everything due to the drop in quality we've all seen during Phases 4 and 5, in both the movies and TV shows, and that they are rebuilding from the ground up to improve the quality of all of their upcoming projects. However, I'm recalling that Superman Returns came out after over a decade of trying to come up with a new Superman movie and all the money that was spent toward starting up and scrapping project after project was bundled up in the official budget of Superman Returns, even though there was nothing to show for those costs. The movie was deemed a failure and all future sequels canceled (I suspect there was a crossover with the Nolan Batman in the works back then), not because the box office did poorly, but because the budget was so monolithic that there was virtually no way the box office could have resulted in a financial success. In other words, these delays could similarly result in bloated budgets and financial failures, even if the quality is there.

Honestly wouldn’t care if Merhashala Ali left the role now, he’s getting old for the role and it feels like they are making this movie because he’s signed on and not because they have a good idea

@josepablodeleon6073 3 месяца назад

To be fair, this movie wasn't even supposed to be in development. Ali won an Oscar and called Feige said that he wanted to play Blade. This project was never in Kevin's plans. So I understand why they're having a hard time setteling for a vision for it, because Kevin doesn't know what this movie should be.

@80sGeekChris-dg7ky 3 месяца назад

I think part of the reason why it’s a bit difficult to make this movie is because Blade was not great source material. At first, he was a C tier character that just had a great film, so I can imagine it being difficult to come up with a story that doesn’t feel derivative to the original films, while also being true to not so great source material. Also, given this film was announced during that period of focusing on releasing as much as possible, it makes sense why they would drop different writers here and there when they are in a rush to get something done, especially when Feige isn’t pleased with it. Now that things have slowed down a bit, I have a feeling that they are taking a breather and getting back on track. Hopefully that means that Marvel Studios will acquire some top tier talent to get this freaking film done. 😮‍💨

@markdaza8425 3 месяца назад

Pls just put Blade back on the shelves if they can’t figure out the scripts. Put some trust into the writers who actually care for Blade and write a good old fashioned Vampire Hunter movie. How can they introduce Blade with Secret Wars on the way? Save it until AFTER Secret Wars, and introduce him as part of the new MCU.

@redbearddan2000 3 месяца назад

Robert Downey Jr. was 50 and older when he starred in Age of Ultron, Civil War, Infinity War and Endgame (the last two are the peak of MCU). Plus black people aging is not noticeable as with white people (no offense, just a fact). So maybe Ali can keep being attached to the role at least for 3 movies

@marci679 3 месяца назад

I AM SO SORRY for Mahershala Ali because he is one of My favorite Actors Working today and i love Blade i love The Wesley Snipes ones even Think that on some points that Blade Trinity is some kind of fun even though it is a very Low bar from The 2 first movies so This new Blade MCU movie should Be exciting but with all of these changes with The writers they had hired some talentet writers like Michael Green (Logan) and Nic Pizzolatto (True Detective) but they Keep Change The writers and The Directors Keeps dropping Out I have Zero faith in this movie it is so clearly for Me that MCU dont Care and The Writers and Directors drops Out or something like that BUT mad respect for Mahershala Ali for his patience OMG!!!

@benlarmouth 2 месяца назад

I don't like the idea of what is going on with Blade, but i don't think they shouldn't cancel it. We already don't have many black characters. T'challa is gone, Sam and Rhoddy are side characters that are being pushed to the front, and no talks on what they are doing with Luke Cage. So we got to get this Blade film, right?

@ChrisMeadows1992 3 месяца назад

People forget the 14 year chasm of false starts between 2001-2015 where Jurassic Park 4 was stopping and starting pre-production every four years or so. Universal announces Joe Johnston is directing it for a 2004 release than radio silence. They announce Johnston is out and The Crow's Alex Proyas is directing with Keira Knightley as an adult Lex for a Summer 2005 release. Radio silence. Michael Crichton dies and Kathy Kennedy says no more Jurassic movies. Mark Protosevich (Thor screenwriter) is announced to be writing a new one for a 2011 release. Radio silence. It took a decade and a half for Universal to finally make Jurassic World. Blade is nothing compared to that IP.
