Blade (1998): 12 Weird Facts You Didn’t Know!

Blade (1998) wasn’t just a superhero movie — it was a midnight raid that cracked the genre open.

Buried in the blood, the leather, and the last-minute rewrites are 12 brutal truths behind the movie that almost never became a legend — One draft nearly turned Blade into a punchline instead of a predator. One casting move put the entire film on the line — and saved it at the last second. And one harsher cut was buried before the myth could fully breathe.
