If you’re going to take a wrecking ball to a franchise, this is the way to do it: by throwing out everything that worked in the previous instalments, adding some new and uninteresting characters and playing it for cheap laughs.

According to Patton Oswalt, the relationship between Wesley Snipes and writer/director David S Goyer was so volatile that Goyer hired a biker gang he’d met in a strip club as bodyguards. 

Director and star communicated through post-it notes for the rest of the shoot (Wesley signed his “from Blade”), with a stand-in fulfilling the actor’s duties while Snipes smoked weed in his trailer.
