9 Best Wesley Snipes Movies

By Vlad Zakh · January 6, 2026

Wesley Snipes was one of the defining action stars of the 1990s, equally convincing as a ruthless crime lord, a wisecracking vampire hunter or a smooth-talking con man. Blade, Blade II and Blade: Trinity are the vampire trilogy, U.S. Marshals pursues a framed fugitive, and New Jack City, White Men Can’t Jump, Demolition Man, Money Train and Coming to America round out the list.
