Stephen Dorff discusses his Blade spin-off movie
“It’s a Scarface Deacon Frost movie”
Somewhere star Stephen Dorff has spoken up about the possibility of reprising the villainous role he played in the original Blade film for a film prequel.
In reaction to the sudden resurgence in popularity of neck-chewing vamps, Dorff has been in touch with Blade director Stephen Norrington about creating a new film based around his villain, Deacon Frost.
“Me and Steve Norrington had a cool treatment for that, and when vampires got all this trending again, we thought we should do the adult version, more of like a Scarface Deacon Frost movie,” he tells blog, Dark Lord Bunnykins.
“ Blade was such a ‘90s thing. I didn’t want to do a Blade movie, I just really wanted to take Deacon and then do a whole other thing which was much more today.”
Dorff better move fast while he’s still young enough to pull off a Frost prequel. Unless those Tron guys agree to give him a digital facelift further down the line...
