'Blade' is considered by some to be the first real Marvel film, given its early success before the canon of the MCU was established. The character was originally played by Wesley Snipes; big shoes to fill for sure.
Actor Wesley Snipes, known for his 'Blade' films, earlier revealed that he was tapped to take on the film 'Black Panther' many years ago. Even so, he said that he was 'ecstatic' more than ever of the 2018 film, which will hit theaters on Feb. 16.
