As a cinephile with decades of film-watching under my belt, witnessing Wesley Snipes reprise his iconic role as Blade in “Deadpool & Wolverine” was nothing short of breathtaking. Having grown up watching the original “Blade” trilogy, it’s truly awe-inspiring to see Snipes break not one, but two Guinness World Records with this comeback.
ATTENTION: This tale may reveal crucial plot points from the ongoing movie “Deadpool & Wolverine,” currently screening in cinemas.
In an exhilarating turn of events, I, a die-hard fan of superhero movies, find myself ecstatically announcing that Wesley Snipes has etched his name twice in the annals of Guinness World Records. This unexpected reappearance as Blade alongside Deadpool and Wolverine was nothing short of breathtaking!
The actor reprises his role as the “daywalker” half-vampire in the third superhero film, marking a return to this character after a gap of 25 years and 340 days since he initially played him in “Blade” (1998). Guinness World Records verifies that this extends his record as the live-action Marvel character with the longest career span. This surpasses the debut of his co-star, Hugh Jackman, who first portrayed Wolverine 24 years ago in “X-Men” (2000).
Wesley Snipes’ unexpected appearance as Blade in a Marvel film earned him yet another Guinness World Record. This record is for the most extensive time between portrayals of a character within Marvel films, with his last performance being 19 years and 231 days ago in “Blade: Trinity” (2004). This gap surpasses Alfred Molina’s 17-year span between playing Doc Ock in “Spider-Man 2” (2004) and his recent role in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” (2021).
In “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Blade, played by Snipes, made an appearance alongside several other cameos. During the movie, this vampire hunter teamed up with the leading characters – Deadpool, Wolverine, Elektra (portrayed by Jennifer Garner), X-23 (Dafne Keen), and Gambit (Channing Tatum). Together, they fought against Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin) and her group of mutant allies.
Released on July 26th, “Deadpool & Wolverine” has shattered several box office records. In its opening weekend alone, it made an impressive $205 million, placing it eighth in terms of best debuts of all time and setting a new record for the highest R-rated opening weekend ever. This superhero film also boasted the largest start of 2024, surpassing Disney’s “Inside Out 2” ($155 million debut). At present, it ranks as the second-highest-grossing domestic release of the year.
