"Blade 2 is going into pre-production [this] month and we'll start shooting that in February. The scripts are all done - all approved. The only two people coming back are Wesley and Kris Kristofferson. I won't say how but it makes sense."
"I'm not going to say [how Kris comes back], but, it makes sense. Fans won't be disappointed. I'm also going to be producing that, so I'll have a little bit more - although I was fairly involved with the first one - I'll have even more involvement."
"All I'm going to say is that he's forced to team up with the one thing he hates more than anything in the world - vampires - because an even greater threat has arisen. And there is a plan for a third movie. I always intended it to be a trilogy. If it continues beyond the third one, I doubt I'll be involved. But I really love writing the characters."
