After revealing at Comic-Con last month that he
wants to return as the Daywalker in Blade 4,
The New York Daily News reveals that Wesley
Snipes is now set to return for the sequel.
Sources claim his comeback is "looking good"
after serving nearly three years in a federal
prison for tax evasion, and that he will make $3
million for the sequel, along with an undisclosed
cut of the profits.
Wesley Snipes starred as the title character in
1998's Blade, 2002's Blade 2 and 2004's Blade:
Trinity, which were all distributed by New Line
Cinema. Marvel Studios reacquired the rights to
Blade in May 2013, and the studio announced
later that month that a new Blade movie is
being developed.
Neither Blade 4 nor the casting of Wesley Snipes
has been announced by Disney and Marvel
Studios. The film doesn't currently have a
screenwriter or director attached, but we'll keep
you posted as soon as more information comes
in.
