The revolving door that is Marvel’s Mahershala Ali-led Blade remake keeps spinning as yet another creative has just exited the project. Last week, Lovecraft Country’s Yann Demange became the second director to depart over creative differences. Ali’s rep Shelby Weiser called the film’s five-year delay “pretty much the craziest thing” she’s ever seen in her career. Weiser isn’t alone either. Upon hearing the news, the OG daywalker wasted no time pouring some salt in the wound via Twitter. “Blade… folks still lookin for the secret sauce, ridin snowmobiles in traffic, kinda rough,” Wesley Snipes tweeted. “Daywalkers make it look easy, don’t they?”
While Marvel struggles to figure out how to adapt perhaps the easiest property in existence, its parent company Disney did at least get one W over the weekend. Inside Out 2 toppled Bad Boys at the box office with a $155 million domestic opening. It’s the first movie of the year to open to such numbers, making it the biggest debut since Barbie. Plans are also currently in motion for more of the Inside Out emotions to express themselves with an upcoming Disney+ series and potentially a third big-screen installment.
Speaking of emotions, we’re experiencing a lot of joy because of a new batch of hilarious tweets that have jump-started the week. Today’s funniest include those about smoking hot wedding favors, an eye-opening breakup and the tell-tale sign that a couple is fighting.
