The fact that they’re completely overhauling the script to this just goes to show they were originally fine with delivering us another crap generic carbon copy marvel comedy via Blade. Crazy what happens when the star of a picture actually stands up for whats right these days.

@Matchesz - you don't even know what the plot was going to be lol

@bobevanz - At least Yann makes more sense to direct Blade than Bassam ever did. He's a pretty good director with experience in action and horror based off of his work on Dead Set, '71, and Lovecraft Country.

Plus (and Yann has talked about this plenty of times in interviews) how most of his directorial efforts revolve similar themes about outsiders looking for one's tribe, leading to question their sense of belonging, and having to contend with them in their own way even if it ends with them being alone.

All of these qualities seem to fit with a character like Blade if you ask me.

Also of note, Yann is a French-Algerian who lived in the UK for a long period of his life (just like Eric Brooks in the comics) and had a father who was Muslim (just like Mahershala Ali).

I swear, if Ali drops out this project will be dead in the water.

Doesn't really matter who directs it. It's a puppet director for the studio.

@SirDuckAlot -

“can I” “no”

“But” “no”

“The fans want” “no”

“Aww man”

@SirDuckAlot - At least Yann makes more sense to direct this more so than Bassam ever did. That one was just plain random and definitely felt like more of a puppet director from that point beforehand until he dropped out.

“He’s a puppet”

“He’s just a hired gun”

“Mercenary director”
