It’s going to take a miracle for Wesley Snipes to get out of his tax evasion charges. Unfortunately, it’s not going to be the Miracle at St. Anna.
The actor was forced to drop out of a potentially career-rejuvenating role in Spike Lee’s latest joint, the World War II drama Miracle at St. Anna. Snipes was unable to commit to shooting the film in Italy due to his pending trial on a litany of tax-evading charges.
Snipes, 45, is accused of attempting to swindle the Internal Revenue Service out of $12 million in fraudulent refunds in 1996 and 1997, and not filing any returns from 1999 to 2004.
Snipes’ loss is Derek Luke’s gain. He’s now slated to play the role originally intended for Snipes. But are they rewriting the part to make the character younger and better looking?

I don't have any idea who "power tv" is, but I can tell you that I never have to "steal" anything. I will take down anything asked, and I have plenty of bandwidth of my own.
Next time it might be nice to just enail me instead of leaving a comment, and to use your real name as well, but that would probably be asking too much.
Cheers!
Thank you. No harm was meant by my request. If your site gained a huge spike in traffic, it would have adversely affected us because your readership would be viewing the image directly from our server. If you would like to contact me directly, my email is Crazy@Powet.TV.
Thank you for your time.
Ooo always so controversial, IW! :)
Anyway, on topic, this isnt the only movie Wesley had to miss because of his IRS problems. He had to hand over his role in Danny Glover's Toussaint bc filming was overseas.
Its a shame really, he was a nice balance from all the Nick Cannons and Cuba Goodings in Hollywood.
Really? Thanks for the info Simo, I had no idea....he seems to have come back to black cinema just a little bit too late!
