Boss Logic Mocks Up Badass Image of John Boyega as ‘Blade’
We didn’t know we needed this. Now we know.
It’s sort of crazy that vampire slayer Blade hasn’t yet been brought back to the screen, what with Marvel characters exploding all across screens both big and small. Despite Wesley Snipes’ continued insistence that he’s still very much up for reprising the role he played three times on the big screen, it’s been 14 years since the final movie.
At this point, we’re thinking the ass-kicking daywalker will be played by a different actor once the decision is made to bring him back, and fans of the character have been fan-casting that role for many years now. Names that have thus far come up include Jamie Foxx and Idris Elba, and we can now add rising mega-star John Boyega to the list.
Based on fan demand, artist Boss Logic just whipped up and shared a concept mock-up of Boyega as Blade, and we are so here for this that it’s not even funny.
Yes. Please.
The killer tomatoes are back in Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence, and the offiical poster for the brand new movie has been unleashed tonight.
Additionally, we’ve learned that the film’s theatrical release is set for this August, with a panel set for San Diego Comic-Con this month featuring the world premiere of the trailer.
While you wait, check out the official poster down below.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence will be released in select cities across the US beginning August 7th in major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Diego, and others, and expanding to further locations throughout the month.
The fifth installment in the horror-comedy franchise pits the eternal power of nature against AI’s best and brightest.
In Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence, a young biotech prodigy develops a revolutionary genetically engineered vegetable designed to solve humanity’s problems. But when the experiment spirals out of control, it unleashes a new generation of killer tomatoes, setting the stage for another outrageous chapter in the long-running cult franchise.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes co-creators Costa Dillon and J. Stephen Peace return to write and executive produce. David Ferino directs.
The film features an ensemble cast led by franchise icon John Astin (The Addams Family), reprising his role as Professor Gangreen, comedy legend David Koechner (Anchorman), Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight), horror favorite Catherine Corcoran (Terrifier), comedy veteran Dan Bakkedahl (Veep), Myrna Velasco (Star Wars Resistance), Vernée Watson (Shrinking, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), and Paul Bates (Coming to America).
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes launched in 1979, followed by 1988’s Return of the Killer Tomatoes, 1991’s Killer Tomatoes Strike Back, and 1992’s Killer Tomatoes Eat France.
The franchise also spawned an animated series in 1990.
