A new film was announced in 2019 and still has no release date; a video game was unveiled in 2023 and has vanished.
He’s cursed, because he always seems on the verge of becoming a major star, but never makes that definitive leap,” says Jorge Iván, co‑director of the Celsius 232 festival of fantasy literature and the Avilés Comic Conference.
A video game in the shadowsA proposed video game also seems not to have escaped the curse.
Marvel’s Blade was announced during The Game Awards (the video game industry’s Oscars) in 2023 as one of Xbox and Bethesda’s major bets.
Meanwhile, other Marvel game projects have continued to move forward, such as the successful Marvel’s Spider‑Man franchise and Marvel’s Wolverine, which is set to launch in September.
