Marvel Shutting Down The New Blade Movie For Now - Report
<p dir="ltr">Marvel's Blade movie is reportedly temporarily on pause, according to <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/blade-movie-on-hold-as-marvel-1235238872/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter">The Hollywood Reporter</a>. The news comes two weeks after <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/marvels-blade-loses-director-just-ahead-of-production-starting/1100-6507874/">director Bassim Tariq (Mogul Mowgli) exited the project</a>--which Marvel cited as being "due to continued shifts in our production schedule."</p><p dir="ltr">The comics giant has not issued a statement on the news. The Hollywood Reporter speculates that although the movie is hoping to restart production in early 2023, it is now no longer likely to meet its expected November 3, 2023 release date. "They want to really get it right," an unnamed source told The Hollywood Reporter. Before Tariq's departure, production was expected to begin in November. [<strong>Update: </strong>In a subsequent report, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/disney-marvel-shift-release-dates-for-many-upcoming-mcu-movies/1100-6508184/">Marvel is said to have delayed multiple movies</a>, including Blade.]</p><p dir="ltr">This is also, unfortunately, far from the first delay that Blade has run into. In May 2021, the reboot film was delayed so the studio <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/marvels-blade-is-still-happening-production-pushed-back-report/1100-6491042/">could further polish Stacy Osei-Kuffour's script</a>. At that time, filming was expected to get underway sometime in July 2022.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/marvel-shutting-down-the-new-blade-movie-for-now-report/1100-6508170/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
