History doesn’t always repeat — sometimes it waits.
Over two decades ago, Wesley Snipes stepped into pop culture as Blade, becoming the first actor to bring a Marvel superhero to life on the big screen in a way that changed the genre forever. Before cinematic universes, before billion-dollar franchises, there was Blade — dark, bold, unapologetic.
Now, with his return to the role, Wesley Snipes has officially broken the Guinness World Record for the longest career as a live-action Marvel character.
This moment isn’t just about a record.
It’s about legacy.
About longevity in an industry that rarely waits.
About honoring the pioneers who built the foundation others now stand on.
From 1998 to today, Blade never faded — he evolved.
And so did the man behind him.
Respect the past. Celebrate the present.
Legends don’t retire — they endure. 🩸🗡️
