The Big Picture It's almost poetic that a movie about vampires, creatures of the night often beset by curses, would find itself entangled in its own real-life curse. Marvel's Blade, the highly anticipated reboot of the iconic vampire hunter saga, is staking its claim for the most unlucky film going after, hitting a major setback as it has reportedly lost its director Yann Demange, plunging the project back into the dreaded limbo of development hell, following an exclusive by TheWrap.
Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali remains attached to star as Blade, despite swirling rumors about his potential involvement in the next Jurassic World film with Universal and Amblin. This dual commitment could suggest a busy schedule for Ali, but his attachment to the Blade project seems steadfast, at least for now.
