Bladeis one of those Marvel projects that do not seem to escape the curse of being delayed. The film has gone through some major creative changes in the course of its development. It stars Mahershala Ali in the titular role. That seems to be the only unchanged and certain thing about this film so far. The actor did have an uncredited cameo inThe Eternalswhere he spoke to Dane Whitman about the magical weapon, Ebony Blade.
The destiny ofBladeseems questionable. The film has been in the works for way too long now and has lost multiple directors and actors who were previously tied to the project. The prolonged wait does not bode well for fans’ excitement.
