A gritty new MCU concept trailer shows just how amazing Marvel Studios' Blade reboot could be, if it can ever get out of its production hell. Academy Award-winner Mahershala Ali was first announced to be cast as the MCU's Daywalker back in 2019, but, since then, he's only had one voice cameo as Eric Brooks' Blade in Eternals' post-credits, and hasn't actually been seen in person. The development of Blade's solo MCU movie has been tumultuous, raising questions about whether Blade will still go ahead or not.
After the loss of at least four writers and two directors, including Bassam Tariq and Yann Demange, Blade's future in the MCU is still no more clear than it was when Mahershala Ali was confirmed for the titular role in 2019. However, a new concept trailer shared by Screen Culture proves just how impactful, powerful and impressive Blade could be in the MCU's Phase 5. This trailer suggests Blade could explore Eric Brooks' origin story as the Daywalker, and pits him against all manner of monstrous foe, and Marvel Studios could take note.
