Sinners Star Michael B. Jordan Talks Marvel's Blade Struggles And Why He'd Work With Jonathan Majors Again
Marvel Studios tapped an Oscar-winning A-Lister, Mahershala Ali, to play the McU's Blade in 2019. However, nearly six years after the actor hit the stage at Comic-Con, the Daywalker's movie has yet to materialise.
In the meantime, Black Panther director Ryan Coogler has enlisted Michael B. Jordan to star in Sinners, a vampire movie that will see the Erik Killmonger actor play twin brothers. If Blade ever becomes a reality, it will be impossible for it to avoid comparisons to Coogler's horror debut which, in many respects, has beaten Marvel Studios to the punch.
Talking to GQ, Jordan showed empathy for the studio's repeated attempts to get Blade off the ground. "Launching any franchise, it’s tough," he acknowledged. "I hope it gets together. I want to see a Blade movie, you know what I’m saying? The Blade franchise was everything."
