Marvel Studios has announced that Mahershala Ali will star in the “Blade” Reboot.
The casting was announced during the studio’s Hall H presentation at Comic-Con, where the two time Academy Award winner received massive applause as he took the stage and put on a Blade baseball cap.
Ali will follow in the footsteps of Wesley Snipes who played the vigilante in the 1998 original franchise.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said that Ali called the studio after winning the Oscar for his work ‘Green Book.’ “When Marhershala calls, you answer,” Feige said. “At the meeting, Ali came right out and said that he wanted to do Blade. That was that.”
