As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for action-packed films, I can’t help but feel a rush of nostalgia upon hearing about Wesley Snipes’ latest move in Hollywood. This man has been an integral part of my gaming and movie nights since the 90s, from his iconic role as Blade to his memorable appearances in New Jack City, Demolition Man, and Passenger 57.
Actor Wesley Snipes, best recognized for portraying the role of vampire hunter Blade, is all set to embark on a fresh phase in his Hollywood journey. He has recently joined Independent Artist Group for representation.
The actor and martial artist, who returned to his Blade character in the blockbuster summer film Deadpool & Wolverine that grossed $1.3 billion, has a career in acting that spans over three decades and ranges across various genres. He garnered attention for his roles in dramas during the 90s like Jungle Fever, his impactful crime movie New Jack City, comedic productions such as To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, and action movies Demolition Man and Passenger 57.
The film “Blade,” initially appearing as a straightforward action thriller upon its release in 1998, proved to be much more impactful over time. Filled with a gritty demeanor and abundant with catchy one-liners, it ignited a trilogy that has grown significantly in respect and influence since the last chapter was released in 2004. When Snipes unexpectedly joined “Deadpool” and “Wolverine,” viewers erupted in excitement.
In the 2000s, I shifted my focus towards independent action films and aimed to shine a light on the growing film industries in developing nations. However, I occasionally popped up in productions like “The Expendables 3,” Eddie Murphy’s “Dolemite Is My Name,” and “Coming 2 America,” as well as Kevin Hart’s mini-series “True Story.” Here’s to continuing this upward trend!
Snipes has pursued an entrepreneurial journey concurrently with his acting profession, currently nurturing multiple projects in the technology sector, such as a mobile application platform. IAG is partnering with the actor to boost these endeavors.
IAG’s recent trend of attracting renowned and iconic figures for their second acts in the entertainment industry continues with Snipes joining their roster. Notable additions to their clientele over the past few years include Regina Hall, Sharon Stone, Nathalie Emmanuel, Maria Bello, William H Macy, Ken Jeong, Marsha Gay Harden, and director John Woo.
