After four years of sweat and tears, the American animated superhero film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse beat all expectations. After the success of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, it was not easy for the makers to produce an equally impressive film. However, with a whopping rating of 95% on Rotten Tomatoes, it is safe to say that the movie is a blockbuster. While one could credit the success of the movie to Phil Lord, Christopher Miller and the three new directors’ creative geniuses, the soundtrack of the 2023 movie deserves attention too.

The Marvel movie turned many heads with its take on rap influences within animated movies. American record producer Metro Boomin delivered one of his best works in the movie that inspired Kanye West Protégé to jump on the bandwagon.

Which Marvel movie is Kanye West disciple eyeing for his music contribution

Metro Boomin released his album for the Marvel movie on 2nd June, right after the release of Spider-Man. He turned a dream into reality by introducing some of the most influential rappers, including A$AP Rocky, 21 Savage, Lil Wayne, and many more in the franchise. After the collaborated success of ‘METRO BOOMIN PRESENTS SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE’, Travis Scott posted a Tweet expressing his interest in lending his music to one of Marvel’s popular characters. 

As per the Tweet, Scott wants to do the soundtrack for one of the most delayed MCU movies, Blade. The ‘Rodeo’ creator wrote, “Woke up thinking I would love to do the soundtrack to Blade”. The 32-year-old just produced his highly anticipated album ‘Utopia’ in July, which ranked at the top on the Billboard 200 chart. And the surprising appearance of West at his ‘Utopia’ concert took the hype around the album to the next level. Owing to such success, there is a fighting chance that MCU might sign the rapper for their upcoming venture.

Fans might have to wait for some time to see Scott collaborating with MCU, owing to the production delays of the Blade movie.

Is MCU’s Blade movie under production?

Wesley Snipes trilogy is what put the character of Blade on the map in the 90s and early 2000s. Since then, fans have been eagerly awaiting a Blade reboot and their wish came true with the Kevin Feige announcement. The MCU head revealed during his appearance at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 that the movie will feature Mahershala Ali as the titular character. However, the makers have pushed the release of the movie numerous times since then, making fans uncertain whether they are even going to see the iconic vampire hunter again on screen. 

The 1998 movie, Blade, did an average business back then. However, according to a recent report from Comicbook, the movie garnered a big wave of viewership on Max, which was added to the streaming platform on 1st September. This overwhelming response from the fans proved how eager Marvel fans are for the release of the upcoming Blade movie. However, the Hollywood Reporter in May broke many hearts, revealing that the makers “were shutting down pre-production” because of the WAG-AFTRA strike.
