Snipes Granted Permission to Shoot Abroad

Well I guess the court decided to let the king of trash action movies continue on because Wesley Snipes has been granted permission to leave the U.S. to work abroad.  As Open Entrance previously reported the troubled Blade star was handed a three-year prison sentence in April after officials found him guilty of failing to file taxes for five years.

Currently free on appeal, Snipes filed a motion last month begging Florida federal judge William Terrell Hodges to allow him the work opportunity.  Snipes has now been approved to fly to London for three days later this month to finish work on ‘Gallowwalker,’ and he will spend another eight weeks in Bangkok, Thailand to shoot ‘Chasing The Dragon.’
