Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest. Marvel fans and actor
mahrschel Ali have grown impatient waiting to see the reboot
of Blade finally gets an official green light, And even
though Maherschela has been attached to play the superhero vampire
hybrid character for over six years, you might be surprised
to learn that if you caught another recent vampire movie,
you were given at least a tiny peak of what

(00:20):
the Blade movie might look like. Costume designer Ruth Carter
was hired to work on the Blade movie a few
years ago when it had a bit more momentum behind
it and part of the storyline was set in the
nineteen twenty, so she began purchasing period appropriate costuming. When
things slowed down, Ruth took another job on Ryan Cougler's
hit Sinners, which coincidentally was not only set in the
same decade, but also a vampire movie. Without much time

(00:40):
to spare, Marvel generously agreed to sell the Blade costumes
to Kugler at cost, so essentially every Sinners actor outside
of the Stars is in Blade. Close by the way,
Sinners is now on Max and Blade hopefully news coming
down soon. For that that's direct from Hollywood.
