Marvel Cancels Blade, Vampire Brawler Half Gains Attention
Original: Marvel Canceled ‘Blade,’ But the Gory Vampire Brawler ‘Half’ Will Thrill Genre Fans
Marvel has canceled its long-gestating Blade film, and Variety reports that attention is shifting to 'Half,' a violent vampire action project pitched as a pick for horror and genre fans. Blade had struggled through years of development delays and director changes before being shelved. Coverage frames 'Half' as the blood-soaked vampire fare audiences may now get instead.
