Disney Drops Blade From 2025 Release Calendar, Adds Predator Movie

Estimated read time 2 min read



For months, it’s been obvious that there was no way that Marvel Studios’ Blade movie was going to make its 2025 release. Now, it’s official: Disney has dropped Blade from its November 7, 2025 premiere date, leaving the reboot without a spot on the Marvel film calendar.

According to Deadline, Disney’s 20th Century Studios already has a movie lined up to take Blade’s place. Predator: Bad Lands will inherit the November 7, 2025 release date, with Prey director Dan Tratechenberg returning to the franchise for its first theatrical film since 2018’s The Predator. Elle Fanning will star in Bad Lands, but plot details about the sequel have yet to be revealed.

As for Blade, Mahershala Ali was announced as the star at Comic-Con 2019. Aside from a quick vocal cameo in Eternals, Ali’s Blade has yet to appear in an actual movie. The reboot film has faced numerous delays, as well as the departures of director Bassam Tariq and his replacement, Yann Demange, earlier this year. Marvel was said to be bringing the revised script out to new directors this past summer, but that doesn’t appear to have happened yet.

Aside from Ali, the only Blade cast member still attached to the film is X trilogy star Mia Goth, who is rumored to be playing the villain, Lilith. For now, there’s no telling when cameras will roll on Blade, but Marvel did map out three new release dates for unspecified upcoming films on February 18, 2028, May 5, 2028, and November 10, 2028.
