Wesley Snipes on Potential 'New Jack City' Sequel: "I Don't...Like the Idea of Recreating the Drug Culture"

BY DIMAS SANFIORENZO • OCT 8 2019

The reaction to the news was mixed.

One person who isn’t all-in on a sequel is Nino Brown himself Wesley Snipes. The actor sat down with Shadow And Act’s Brooke Obie while promoting his new movie Dolemite Is My Name. During the interview he was asked about a new New Jack City movie, Snipes said: “I’m not associated with it. I have nothing to do with it at all.”
