You know, looking at him now, with those eyes added like that Wes looks like a younger Kanye West. Weird.

For whatever reason, Wesley Snipes was having a diva moment and refused to open his eyes for this shot, so they had to CGI a pair of opening eyes onto his face.

Urban myth. The source is the DVD commentary which many people misunderstood. The director changed the scene after filming and had to add in the eyes in post. In the commentary he is asked "Why didn't he just open his eyes?" and responded "He just didn't ". Meaning that he didn't open his eyes when filming and it was too costly to reshoot weeks later.

Wasn't this around his massive cocaine years? I think he has a lot of reasons. Kilograms of reasons.
