Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine tied together in Wolverine & Deadpool. 

The Big Picture Fans may have been shocked when fan-favorite Marvel character, Blade, returned to the screen in Deadpool & Wolverine, but they wouldn’t be the only ones. Wesley Snipes, who first debuted the character in the 1998 titular film, told Entertainment Weekly wasn’t so sure how it could come together for the MCU movie. The film trilogy that featured the daywalking vampire was the first Rated R film in the history of Marvel.

A reboot Blade film with Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali has been in the works for some time, and it has been no secret that the film has been troubled by creative delays. Bringing back the original Blade during this tumultuous time may have previously seemed impossible. But true to Ryan Reynolds’ word, Snipes reprised his famous role, making many nostalgic fans delighted.

And not only are they included, but they are given their due. Deadpool & Wolverine embraces previous Marvel and X-Men universe hallmarks and gives them the proper send-off they deserve. Blade even provides some meta digs about the reboot, which probably surprised Snipes most of all. Two decades ago, it may have seemed unlikely that a franchise could have such creative freedom.
