After a meteoric year in her career, now the actress will make her entry into Marvel.
After spending the past year terrorizing audiences and wowing critics, ‘Pearl’ and ‘X’ star Mia Goth is ready to take her talents to other genres. Specifically to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It has now been announced that the actress joins the cast led by Mahershala Ali in the Marvel Studios movie ‘Blade’.
Yann Demange will be attached to direct the film, with Michael Starrbury on board to write the script. and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige as producer. Ali stars in the lead role in this new version. Plot details are unknown at this time, as well as who Goth would play.
Plans for a new incarnation of the character Blade, once played by Wesley Snipes in a series of films in the early 2000s, were revealed during Marvel’s presentation at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019.
Created as a supporting character by Marv Wolfman and Gene Colan, ‘Blade’ first appeared in Tomb of Dracula No. 10 in 1973., becoming a cult favorite. He is a human-vampire hybrid thanks to his mother being bitten and killed by a bloodsucker during childbirth. The character became a star in the ’90s when New Line adapted the comic with Snipes on board to star, with two sequels following the hit movie.
Mia Goth is coming off a stellar year that began with the A24 horror film ‘X’, released a year ago, and its prequel ‘Pearl’ it premiered a few months later. Goth stars in both movies, but she’s front and center in the prequel, where she gave such a stellar performance that award pundits began arguing over a possible Best Actress nominee. She can then be seen in the latest installment of the ‘X’ series, ‘MaXXXine’, which premieres at the end of 2023 and which she also directs Ti West.
In addition, the 29-year-old actress is also in talks to co-star in Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’. In addition to Ti West’s works, we have seen the actress in films such as ‘High Life’, by Claire Denis, the new version of ‘Suspiria’ or the Spanish production ‘The Secret of Marrowbone’. She also participated in ‘The Wellness Cure’ and ‘Nymphomaniac’, which was her first work on the big screen.
