New Jack City is on its way with a remake and while many fans are excited, Wesley Snipes is not one of them.
The OG "Nino Brown" from the 1991 original openly told the Jasmine Brand he has no interest in being a part of it. In fact, Wesley feels it was better left alone.
“I’m not associated with it, you know. I have nothing to do with it at all. I think some things should be left alone…if it worked at the time under the circumstances. And the story was built around things that are current. I don’t particularly like the idea of recreating the drug culture. For what? […] I don’t know. They actually talked to me about doing it and I told them no. If I had a dime for every time I’ve said no. It’s a done deal, it’s a wrap.”
Sorry to anyone hoping it would reprise his star role.
However, one reboot we can look forward to seeing him in is the Coming To America sequel. He's cast alongside Eddie Murphy as "General Izzi," ruler of a neighboring nation.
