Mahershala Ali’s Blade movie has disappeared from schedules but that doesn’t mean we won’t see Marvel’s most famous vampire hunter soon.

The movie, which cast Mahershala Ali, has faced many setbacks, from losing directors and cast members to being pushed back by years.

Blade was on the schedule for a theatrical bow on Nov. 7, 2025, but filming still hasn't begun, which already made it seem unlikely that the movie would achieve that goal. Now, Predator: Badlands, the new Predator film starring Elle Fanning, will take its release slot next year.
