Did Ryan Reynolds and Wesley Snipes Have a Feud?

There’s been a lot of talk about whether Ryan Reynolds and Wesley Snipes clashed while making Blade: Trinity. Here’s a look at what actually went down between the two actors.

Ryan Reynolds’ Perspective

Ryan Reynolds has been open about his experience working with Wesley Snipes. Here’s what he’s said:

Method Acting: Reynolds mentioned that Snipes was so deep into his role as Blade that it felt like he only interacted with the character, not the person behind it. Snipes stayed in character all the time, which Reynolds found tough to deal with.

Respect and Humor: Despite this, Reynolds has made it clear that the supposed feud is exaggerated. He respects Snipes’ dedication and even tried to lighten the mood with ad-libbed lines. Reynolds admits that some of these attempts to break Snipes’ serious demeanor ended up on screen, adding a bit of humor to their interactions.

Wesley Snipes’ Perspective

Wesley Snipes has mostly avoided talking about Reynolds specifically but has addressed broader issues:

On-Set Rumors: Snipes has been the subject of various rumors, including claims that he got into a physical altercation with director David Goyer. Snipes has denied these stories and pointed out that if he had actually done something like that, he would have faced serious legal consequences.

Professionalism: Snipes has said that as an executive producer on the film, he had a lot of influence over the production. If he had issues with how things were run, he would have handled them professionally rather than through conflict.

While there was some tension between Ryan Reynolds and Wesley Snipes during the filming of Blade: Trinity, it seems to stem more from professional differences and Snipes’ method acting rather than any real personal animosity. Reynolds has shown respect for Snipes’ commitment, even though working together was challenging at times. Snipes, on the other hand, has focused on addressing general rumors about the production rather than specifically commenting on Reynolds.
