Speaking with Josh Horowitz on the
Happy Sad Confused podcast, Goth was asked about Blade and her perspective on all the different delays the project has suffered.
“I don’t know what’s going on with that,” she said. “I think that they want to make it. And it’s such an important film for them that they’re taking their time with it. I really don’t have any information. I don’t know why it’s taken the time that it has. But, you know, we will see. We will see.”
Goth was also asked about one iteration of the Blade script that was reportedly set in the 1920s and would have seen the Pearl star play a villainous character named Lilith.
“The furthest that it got with me was that — I auditioned for that too, actually,” Goth said. “I auditioned for that. And they flew to Atlanta, and we did a chemistry test between Mahershala and I. We did a costume fitting and a wig fitting. I was very excited about the direction it was going. It was very cool. Mahershala had such an interesting take on it. He was great. And then it just unraveled from there, unfortunately.”
