This article is a couple of months old but it's funny as hell, read it!
Snipes, the star of the Blade movie trilogy, is not part of the cast of the TV series, with his character instead being played by Kirk Sticky Jones. Snipes isnt jealous of being passed up for the role, his problem with the television show is that its paying Marvel for the licensing the character and story and not him.
You see, Snipes is claiming that Marvel bought partial rights to the Blade universe from Snipes. Not only that, Snipes is saying the character and story are not fiction, but based on him and his real life experiences. He is claiming that he can back up all his claims and has scheduled a press conference for next week to demonstrate his vampiric qualities.
Even if he proves that he is in fact part vampire, this does nothing to prove that the Blade universe is in any way related to Mr. Snipes life story, a Marvel representative announced. We plan on fighting this absurd lawsuit and are confident a judge will remember that vampires, like vegetarians, are evil.
