Delroy Lindo Says Marvel’s Delayed ‘Blade’ Remake “Just Went Off The Rails”

“When Marvel came to me, they seemed to be really interested in my input,” the Da 5 Bloods star said. It was really exciting conceptually, but it was also exciting in terms of the character that was going to form. He was a character who had, very similar to Sinners, created a community, a Black community. Late last year, Marvel unsurprisingly pulled Blade from its 2025 release calendar. Originally announced back in 2019, the movie was naturally delayed by the pandemic and dual industry strikes.
