THREE ACTORS WHO COULD PLAY BLADE
Eric Brooks was born a vampire possessing all their strengths but none of their weaknesses. He has dedicated his life to destroying the occult world of vampires.
Wesley Snipes
Yes, I know he’s getting on a bit now but he made such an excellent Blade (even in the crappy third movie!) I’d be more than happy to see him return! I really don’t think he looks his age and he has recently said he’s still interested in the character so bring him back!
Erik King
At just under six foot, King is perhaps a little short for Blade. However, he has the right look, build and personality while his performance in Dexter was very similar to Blade and I really think he’d give an excellent performance as the character!
Michael Jai White
I’m not a fan of the thought of him playing Luke Cage because I think he’s much better suited in both looks and personality to play Blade. Plus, with his acting background I don’t think that he’d have any problems with the action side of things!
ALLIES
Bill Cobbs as Jamal Afari
Although Jamal Afari is a vampire, he actually went on to become a Vampire-Hunter. He trained the young Blade in combat.
Quincy Harker's Vampire-Hunters
In Paris, Blade first encountered the vampire hunters Quincy Harker, Rachel van Helsing, Taj Nital, and Frank Drake. Because of his mercurial temperament, Blade had a strained but steady relationship with the group, allying himself with them on several occasions.
Sean Connery as Quincy Harker
Quincy was trained as a vampire hunter by Van Helsing, and became his successor. Quincy quickly became Dracula's nemesis.
Ali Larter as Rachel Van Helsing
The great-granddaughter to the legendary vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing. She was trained to be a vampire hunter by Quincy Harker after her parents were killed by Dracula.
Kiefer Sutherland as Frank Drake
Frank Drake is a direct descendant of Count Dracula. He joined Quincy Harker's band of vampire hunters under the close tutelage of Rachel van Helsing and Harker.
Anil Kapoor as Taj Nital
Taj Nital is a vampire of the Marvel Universe, and has worked both alongside and against the likes of Blade, Abby, King, and Drake.
The Nightstalkers
The team was composed of the vampire-hunters Blade, Frank Drake and, private detective Hannibal King. They were gathered by Doctor Strange in Nightstalkers #1 to battle an immediate threat, but under his larger, hidden agenda.
Johnny Depp as Doctor Strange
Dr Strange, once a gifted but egotistic surgeon sought the Ancient One to heal his wounded hands. Instead he became Master of the Mystic Arts and the Sorcerer Supreme.
Thomas Jane as Hannibal King
Hannibal King was an ordinary Private investigator until Deacon Frost killed him and turned him into a vampire.
ENEMIES
Ron Glass as Deacon Frost
Deacon Frost is the man responsible for Blade's vampirism. He is a one of a kind vampire with the ability to control his victims.
Joseph Fiennes as Dracula
Dracula is the most powerful vampire in the Marvel Universe. Though not the first of his kind, he is considered lord of all Earth's vampires.
Benicio Del Toro as Morbius
Morbius was born with a rare blood disorder. In an attempt to treat himself he was transformed into a living vampire. He has been both a force of good and evil in his time.
