While working with him on the set of Blade: Trinity, Patton Oswalt developed quite the negative opinion of Snipes. Oswalt described him as an off-the rails diva who only came to set to film his close-ups. “He wouldn’t come out of his trailer, and he would smoke weed all day.” Oswalt also claims that Snipes at one point “tried to strangle” the film’s director, David Goyer.
