"It's a little demanding because we are trying to top ourselves, trying to give the audience more than we gave them previously, trying to be more creative and less repetitive," Snipes said. "It requires a little more attention and focus because we have to dig a little deeper."
"The audience wants that detail -- the comic books have it, especially the successful ones. We can mimic that if we take the time to pay attention to the details. We don't want to leave them short on anything."
David Goyer, who wrote all three Blade movies, and also directed Blade: Trinity, said he thought of Snipes for the role right from the beginning.
"When I first pitched the idea of doing a Blade movie, the studio felt there were only three actors who could possible do the role: Wesley Snipes, Denzel Washington and Lawrence Fishburne," Goyer said. "But in my mind, Wesley was always the perfect Blade.
"So when I was writing the first film, he was whom I pictured. Because he's so well trained in martial arts, it comes to him naturally. He has an innate understanding of action and movement and dance. But he's also a clasically trained actor.
"And even though Blade is a man of few words, Wesley imbues him with all these beautiful little nuances."
