Blade MCU Release Date Delay Rumored To Last Until Multiverse Saga End

Key Takeaways

  • Blade MCU reboot starring Mahershala Ali faces indefinite delays.
  • Marvel Studios’ Blade is allegedly set aside to focus on Multiverse stories.
  • Fans may not see Blade until after Avengers: Secret Wars in 2027.

As a seasoned Marvel fan with over two decades of comic book-inspired adventures under my belt, I must admit that this news about the Blade reboot has left me feeling like a vampire who just got hit by a truck. The endless delays and setbacks have become as predictable as Spider-Man swinging through New York City.

Information on why the release date of the Blade MCU has been postponed indefinitely and potential timeline for its eventual premiere, as revealed by a reliable source, sheds light on the latest obstacle faced by Marvel Studios’ reboot featuring Mahershala Ali.

The reboot of Marvel Studio’s Blade, starring Ali, has faced numerous hurdles since its initial announcement at San Diego Comic Con 2019. The remake of Blade has seen two directors depart, cycled through six screenwriters, and released some actors due to alterations in the production timeline. As a result, delays in the Blade reboot have caused numerous changes in its release dates, with the latest set for November 7, 2025. Regrettably, even this date seems unlikely for the Blade reboot.

Disney has postponed the release of the Marvel Studios’ “Blade” reboot, previously set for November 7, 2025. Instead, this slot now belongs to “Predator: Badlands”, the upcoming installment in the Predator franchise which gained significant success following Hulu’s “Prey”. Currently, there’s no new release date for the MCU’s “Blade” reboot, leading some fans to speculate if it might have been canceled. However, according to Alex Perez from The Cosmic Circus, the film has merely been put on hold because it doesn’t tie into the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Multiverse Saga.

The main issue preventing #Blade and similar projects like Armor Wars and Nova from moving forward is that their narratives don’t align with the overall storyline of the Multiverse Saga. It isn’t that these projects aren’t being produced; instead, they are being delayed to accommodate stories set within the multiverse.

As a gamer putting on my superhero specs, I’ve got some exciting news about Blade! Perez and MyTimeToShineHello hinted in their tweets that the upcoming MCU projects aren’t replacing Blade; instead, Marvel Studios is temporarily stepping back from Blade to focus on the intriguing Multiverse tales. Now, this doesn’t mean ol’ Blade has kicked the bucket! In fact, MyTimeToShineHello said, “Blade isn’t dead yet.” While they didn’t confirm it directly, it seems like we might not get the MCU’s reboot of Blade until after Avengers: Secret Wars, which is set to hit the big screen in 2027. So, fellow fans, if this rumor holds true, we’ve got a wait of about three years before we can catch up with our favorite Daywalker again!

If Blade is being shifted towards multiverse stories, it follows Perez’s earlier statement about Marvel Studios’ future plans beyond Avengers: Secret Wars. As per Perez, Marvel Studios’ upcoming phase following the Multiverse arc will emphasize the supernatural aspect of the MCU, with Blade as a key player. Although this doesn’t guarantee that Blade won’t appear during the Multiverse Arc, it seems like Marvel Studios could be utilizing the film’s delays to refine Blade’s solo movie and position him for a more prominent role in the following MCU phase. This might not satisfy fans eager for Marvel Studios’ interpretation of the character, but they should brace themselves for a possible prolonged wait.

Marvel Studios’ Blade is in development.
