The results of screenwriter David Goyer's labours on Blade 2 are barely cooling in their tins and already Goyer is planning ahead for the third film in the series. In an interview with Comics2Film.com, Goyer - who originally pitched Blade to New Line as a series of three movies - tells of his plans for Blade 3. 'I've always had in mind an idea for the third one that takes it into really uncharted territory and I'm curious to see if New Line will go for it or not. 'What I really want to do for the third one is set it about 20 years in the future and the vampires have actually completely taken over the world, so they are the status quo. Because Blade is actually half-vampire, he ages at a slower rate, so Wesley can still play himself.' 'In all these different stories the vampires are trying to take over the world,' Goyer goes on to explain. 'For the third film I just want to say, "Fuck it, they've won. Now what is the world like?"'
