Mahershala Ali to Unleash Ruthlessness and Roughness in R-Rated ‘BLADE’
Demange recently spoke about his excitement for the film and his belief in Ali’s ability to portray the character. He praised Ali’s natural dignity and integrity, but also noted the underlying ferocity that he believes Ali will be able to fully unleash with the film’s R-rating.
“He’s got a dignity & integrity, but there is a ferocity there that he usually keeps under the surface,” Demange said. “I’m excited to see what he does with it. I think he’s going to be amazing.”
Ali is taking on a role that was made iconic by Wesley Snipes, who played Blade in a trilogy of films from 1998 to 2004. Snipes’ portrayal of Blade was groundbreaking and influential, and it will be fascinating to see how Ali brings his own unique interpretation to the character.
With Demange’s vision and Ali’s talent, the new Blade film has the potential to be a truly special addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Fans are eagerly awaiting its release.
