Blade’s Alternate Looks Revealed in New Deadpool and Wolverine Concept Art

In a fascinating glimpse into the creative process behind the blockbuster film Deadpool and Wolverine, concept artist John Staub has shared some intriguing artwork showcasing alternate looks for the iconic character Blade, played by Wesley Snipes.

The Daywalker in all his glory

As fans of the film will know, Blade was a surprise addition to the movie, and his appearance was met with widespread enthusiasm from audiences. But what if the character had looked a little different? Staub’s artwork offers a glimpse into an alternate universe where Blade’s design was slightly different.

A different take on the iconic character

According to Staub, he wanted to create a Blade that looked like he had been through a lot. “I wanted to go for a more worn Blade that has seen and done a lot of things to survive,” he explained. The result is a design that is both familiar and yet distinct from the final version that made it into the film.

The success of Deadpool and Wolverine has raised hopes that we may see more of Blade in the future. With Mahershala Ali set to play the character in an upcoming reboot, fans are eagerly anticipating his take on the role. But Ryan Reynolds has been campaigning for a “Logan-like send-off” for the original Blade, and given the positive reaction to his appearance in the film, it’s possible that we may see Wesley Snipes don the character’s iconic coat once again.

The dynamic duo

As the film continues to break box office records, it’s clear that the combination of Deadpool and Wolverine is a winning one. And with the addition of Blade to the mix, the possibilities for future adventures are endless.

Conclusion

The revelation of these alternate looks for Blade offers a fascinating glimpse into the creative process behind Deadpool and Wolverine. As fans, we can only hope that we’ll see more of this iconic character in the future. Whether it’s in a new film or a different project altogether, one thing is certain: Blade is a character who will always be in style.
