Snipes Returned As Blade in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’
In the movie, Snipes’ Blade joins forces with Elektra, X-23, and Gambit to fight a villain named Cassandra Nova. This was likely a one-time return, but it showed that many still like seeing Snipes as Blade.
The new ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ movie has an R-rating for strong bloody violence, language, gore, and sexual references. The movie’s synopsis describes Wade Wilson (Deadpool) and Logan (Wolverine) reluctantly teaming up to save their world.
Other actors returning to the series include Morena Baccarin, Leslie Uggams, Rob Delaney, Brianna Hildebrand, and Shioli Kutsuna. Newcomers to the franchise are Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen. Shawn Levy directed the movie, and the script was written by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells.
