Ryan Reynolds and Wesley Snipes have turned a new leaf in their relationship, hinting at possible collaborations after the release of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’. This movie not only featured a host of celebrity cameos but also marked Snipes’ notable return as Blade, nearly two decades since their collaboration in ‘Blade: Trinity’. Despite previous rumors of a feud stemming from their time on set, Reynolds’ recent post on social media suggests that any past tensions have been resolved.

The unexpected appearance of Snipes as Blade in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ has sparked excitement among us. This cameo was not just a treat for the eyes but also set records. Guinness World Records confirmed that Snipes now holds the record for the ‘Longest Career as a Live-Action Marvel Character’ and for the ‘Longest Gap Between Character Appearances in Marvel Films’. With a 26-year gap since his first portrayal in the original ‘Blade’, Snipes has surpassed Hugh Jackman’s record with Wolverine.

Amid this resurgence, there’s talk about a new ‘Blade: Trinity’ sequel. While there’s no official word yet, the idea is gaining momentum thanks to the success of his recent role and the clear public interest in seeing more of Snipes in action.

Ryan Reynolds recently made waves with his new film ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, which was enhanced by several familiar faces like Channing Tatum’s Gambit and Jennifer Garner’s Elektra. The real surprise, however, was Wesley Snipes reprising his role as the iconic vampire hunter Blade, which was a clever nod to their shared screen history and past rumors of on-set conflicts.

In a playful acknowledgment of their rumored rocky past, Snipes’ character Blade sharply tells Deadpool, ‘I don’t like you,’ to which Deadpool responds, ‘Never did.’ This exchange in the film humorously reflects their off-screen reconciliation.

You can catch ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ in theaters now and relive Snipes’ previous role by renting ‘Blade: Trinity’ on Apple TV. This resurgence of Snipes in the Marvel universe is not only a thrilling development for us but also a celebration of his enduring legacy as Blade.
