Wesley Snipes will appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, new television series.
The only popular superhero films before he took on the role of C-list vampire hunter Blade for the 1998 film directed by Stephen Norrington featured Batman or Superman, and those franchises were in decline.
The only other Marvel movie to hit theaters was 1986’s infamous Howard the Duck flop.
The majority of Marvel movies were bad straight-to-VHS releases, like the Punisher movie with Dolph Lundgren and no skull logo, or embarrassing TV movies, like Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD with David Hasselhoff playing the lead role.
With Blade, Snipes revitalized the outdated superhero genre and added excitement, vibrancy, and freshness.
Fans have long longed for Snipes to return to the genre and join the MCU despite the disastrous and divisive Blade: Trinity. Most people expected him to appear in the upcoming Blade revival, which stars Mahershala Ali in the lead role. But Snipes will unexpectedly arrive sooner than expected.
Marvel has shared a clip from Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur animated series along with a list of its guest voice actors as part of their animation announcements at SDCC.
Wesley Snipes will lend his voice to an unnamed character, joining Stranger Things breakout Maya Hawke and Hamilton actor Daveed Diggs. Could Blade be there?
Snipes will have to significantly tone down his performance if he plays the Daywalker.
Diamond White voices Moon Girl, a young genius who bonds with Devil Dinosaur, a red mutant T-Rex, in Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, an animated children’s series to be aired on the Disney Channel.
The 90-second short depicting Moon Girl’s futile attempt to deter some thieves has a fun, irreverent tone that’s appropriate for kids ages 7-13.
The program is an adaptation of the recent comic book series of the same title by Brandon Montclare & Amy Reeder, Natacha Bustos, Tamara Bonvillian and Travis Lanham.
The Devil Dinosaur and Moon-Boy television series is an update of an earlier idea by Jack Kirby about characters who had adventures in a different reality.
Devil Dinosaur is introduced to the present in the new series and anime adaptation, where he has absurd escapades with Moon Girl. Along with Sasheer Zamata, Jermaine Fowler, Gary Anthony Williams, and Alfre Woodard as Lunella’s family members, Lawrence Fishburne will play The Beyonder, one of Marvel’s most peculiar and polarizing characters.
Undoubtedly, Blade and the majority of Snipes’ work will have a completely different tone to Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.
The actor, however, has proven time and time again that he is one of the most versatile and talented performers of our generation, as evidenced by action twists in Blade and Demolition Man to comedic appearances in White Men Can’t Jump and To Wong Foo, Thanks for everything; Julie Numar.
Snipes is the only person who can find new levels in the Daywalker or voice another Marvel Comics weirdo.
