We figure it’s only a matter of time before vampire-slayer Blade, played by Wesley Snipes in the film franchise, is brought into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After all, Blade is a Marvel Comics character, so one would have to imagine that he’ll someday be joining the fun either on the big screen or the small one.
Recently, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige noted that “it would be fun to do something with [Blade] one day,” which was just enough of a tease to inspire artist Boss Logic to put his talents to the test. Boss Logic is known for whipping up super cool fan art that imagines actors in either roles they’ve just been cast in or ones he’d like to see them cast in, and his latest piece falls into the latter category.
He imagines Jamie Foxx as Blade, and god damn is the art badass.
Again, there are no current plans in motion to bring Blade into the MCU, nor has Jamie Foxx’s name ever even been mentioned in relation to the character (Anthony Mackie has, however, expressed interest in the role), but sometimes fan art like this is enough to scratch the itch just a little bit.
Check it out below and let us know what you think of Foxx as Blade!
