Update: Marvel’s Blade Reboot Has Reportedly Been Shelved (2026)

Updated July 2026. Despite this 2023 filming restart, Blade never made it to screen. The project lost multiple directors and writers over several years of retooling, and by January 2026 several entertainment outlets reported that Marvel Studios had quietly shelved the standalone Blade film indefinitely, with no release date attached. Rather than a solo movie, reports suggest Mahershala Ali’s take on the vampire hunter may instead be folded into Marvel’s upcoming Midnight Suns project. Marvel has not issued an official cancellation, and Ali remains attached to the character, first announced at San Diego Comic-Con back in 2019.
