When Ryan Reynolds steps into the red suit, audiences do not just watch; they buckle up. From fourth-wall-breaking barbs to slicing enemies with the precision of a Michelin chef dicing scallions, Reynolds is Deadpool incarnate. His uproarious chemistry with Hugh Jackman in Deadpool & Wolverine turned their chaotic friendship into a genre-bending masterclass. Critics laughed, cried, and slightly questioned them. With Reynolds redefining what a superhero film can be, it is only natural that fans are now imagining him in Blade’s brooding reboot.

No wonder viewers want his wisecracks and weaponry front and center in Marvel’s next vampire venture, and with whispers swirling, they have good reason to believe Ryan Reynolds might just slice his way into the Blade reboot.

Wesley Snipes’ unexpected Blade cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine was orchestrated by Ryan Reynolds himself, who texted Snipes directly. Snipes admitted he was initially baffled, especially given Mahershala Ali's already-public casting. But when Ryan Reynolds asks if you want to bring back the most iconic vampire hunter of the early 2000s, while also slicing up timelines, it becomes hard to refuse.

The scene itself was brief but unforgettable, with Snipes declaring, “There is only ever going to be one Blade.” The line, dripping with swagger and irony, felt like Reynolds and Snipes planting a flag inside Marvel's multiverse. The fourth-wall-breaking chaos of Deadpool & Wolverine gave Blade a reentry point, even if Mahershala Ali is already circling his own reboot. 

Ryan Reynolds has not explicitly stated that Deadpool will appear in the Blade reboot, but his track record of creative meddling makes such an omission feel more like a dare than a denial. After orchestrating Wesley Snipes' cameo with a single text, Reynolds posted on social media: “More Blade please.” There have been no confirmations or denials yet. What fans are holding onto is that Reynolds thrives in chaos, and the Blade reboot has had no shortage of it. While Mahershala Ali remains the confirmed lead, delays, rewrites, and release removals have left the project wide open for unexpected twists.

If anyone is going to sneak Deadpool in through the back door, with katana in hand and a vampire pun on his lips, it would be Reynolds.

The Blade reboot has had more false starts than a Wi-Fi signal in a concrete bunker. The film was originally slated for 2025, but it has since been scrubbed from Marvel’s release calendar. The delays stem from director departures, a revolving door of screenwriters, and, as Kevin Feige admits, a creeping case of Marvel fatigue. Audiences are exhausted, and so, it seems, are the scripts.

Whether Blade’s return will slice through the fog of delays or become another shelved relic, one thing is certain: if anyone can crash the vampire party and resurrect momentum, it is Deadpool with a stake in one hand and sarcasm in the other.
