Technically it was Ali's decision
He's great in everything he stars in. He was the best thing about Moonlight and he was in the movie for minutes.He was wonderful in moonlight and Luke cage
Slight correction: we know we have Ali as Blade. "Daywalker" is a concept introduced in the original movie series, and we do *not* know for a fact that it will be any part of this reboot. I hope its not, for various reasons.
YesThe way he talked, walked and even his hand gestures in Alita Battle Angel seems to be a testing ground if he can comfortably play and commit to a Blade character.
Even before the announcement, I immediately thought of Blade when I saw him in that movie, only thing missing was the fangs and sword lol.
I have zero qualms with the casting choice, but I am a little surprised they went with someone as old as Ali.
I was really expecting that, when the time came, it would be Trevante Rhodes or someone in that age range.

Ali is amazing casting. my only worry is how the MCU is gonna handle a character like Blade in terms of darkness and violence.
