  • Wesley Snipes was reportedly unhappy with the script and the original director of Blade: Trinity; when David S. Goyer, who wrote all three Blade films, replaced him, Snipes also protested. During filming Snipes reportedly refused to shoot scenes, forcing Goyer to use stand-ins and computer effects to insert his Blade into scenes.
  • Wesley Snipes sued New Line Cinema and director David S. Goyer in 2005, claiming the studio did not pay his full salary, cut him out of casting and filmmaking despite his producer role, and reduced Blade's screen time in favor of co-stars Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel.
  • New Line Cinema producers suggested casting professional wrestler Triple H in Blade: Trinity and director David S. Goyer was highly skeptical, but he was impressed by Triple H's comic timing and self-deprecation and expanded the role for him.
  • For the fictional city in Blade: Trinity, writer-director David S. Goyer used Esperanto and its flag, which appears at the police headquarters entrance and in the rooftop scene where Drake threatens to drop a baby; background signs and advertisements carry Esperanto translations.
  • In August 2003 Ryan Reynolds was in negotiations to join Blade: Trinity and Ashley Scott was being considered as his counterpart, with the pair also set to star in a potential spin-off film.
