Trivia: The first major studio film directed by David S. Goyer, whom wrote all three movies. Another director was lined up, but fired early in production, and Goyer was selected as a last-minute replacement. Series star Wesley Snipes, weary of Goyer's lack of experience and wanting a veteran director, protested, which was the start of the behind-the-scenes drama mentioned elsewhere in the trivia.
Trivia: Although he was one of the more prominent action stars of the 90's, this currently stands as the last theatrically-released film in which Wesley Snipes received top billing. His subsequent film career has mostly consisted of direct-to-video or direct-to-streaming releases.
Trivia: Despite the production troubles on this film, series star Wesley Snipes has long lobbied to get a fourth film made to redeem the series after this third film was met with a generally lukewarm reception from fans. Though he tried for a number of years, the rights to the character eventually reverted back to Marvel, whom have hinted at a potential reboot as opposed to a fourth film.
Trivia: On the DVD/Blu-Ray, there's an alternate ending featuring a werewolf. In the scene, director David S. Goyer appears in a cameo as the casino-goer that Hannibal King punches and throws onto a table.
Trivia: At one point, Blade sarcastically asks the Nightstalkers if they think hunting vampires is like "a sitcom." Both Ryan Reynolds and Patton Oswalt, who play two of the Nightstalkers, starred in sitcoms either before or while this film was made. ("Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place" and "The King of Queens" respectively).
Trivia: According to actress Kate Beckinsale, a few years after the release of "Blade: Trinity," Sony/Screen Gems approached New Line and tried to pitch a crossover movie in which Blade would appear in an "Underworld" film, but New Line declined the offer.
Answer: No, the amount was only enough to destroy the vampires in the immediate vicinity.
