Development on Marvel’s reboot of the “Blade” movies has hit a snag, as Bassam Tariq has stepped down as director on the film just weeks before it was supposed to go into production.
“Due to continued shifts in our production schedule, Bassam is no longer moving forward as director of Blade but will remain an executive producer on the film. We appreciate Bassam’s talent and all the work he’s done getting Blade to where it is,” Marvel Studios said in a statement.
