Wesley Snipes returns as legendary vampire hunter
Blade in this, the third film inspired by the popular
Marvel Comics character. A fearless warrior immune to vampires,
Blade (
Snipes) has become a hated enemy of the bloodsucking community, and as they gather in their desert compound, a group of vampires is plotting to eliminate
Blade once and for all by turning the mortal community against him. The vampires have concocted a misinformation campaign that paints a picture of
Blade as a ruthless murderer and has sent the FBI on the vampire hunter's trail, led by the relentless agent
Cumberland (
James Remar). At the same time, the vampires have brought their founding father,
Dracula, back to his undead state, renaming him
Drake (
Dominic Purcell) and investing him with special powers that allow him to walk unharmed in daylight. After a dangerous encounter with
Cumberland,
Blade and his ally,
Whistler (
Kris Kristofferson), form an uneasy alliance with a scruffy team of human vampire slayers, the Nighstalkers, led by
Hannibal King (
Ryan Reynolds), and
Whistler's daughter,
Abigail (
Jessica Biel. While
Sommerfield (
Natasha Lyonne), a biologist working with the Nightstalkers, researches a scientific answer to the vampire problem,
Blade and his comrades take a more hands-on approach against
Drake and his minions, including
Danica Talos (
Parker Posey),
Asher (
Callum Keith Rennie), and
Grimwood (
Triple H).
Blade: Trinity was directed by
David Goyer, who also wrote the screenplay for this film, as well as the first two movies in the series.
