Wesley Snipes - Before the rise of Will Smith, Wesley Snipes was the unquestioned king of black action hero actors. From New Jack City all the way to the Blade trilogy, this man was considered money in the bank when it came to action blockbusters. Ever since his conviction for tax evasion, however, no one has heard from him, even though he is free on bail.
Cuba Gooding Jr.- This man was once an Oscar-calibur actor and played serious roles in many noteworthy movies during the 90's. He even got his own Hollywood star on the Walk of Fame. Today, he's starring in straight to DVD films and doing Hanes commercials for Jordan.
Both these men have fallen off the Hollywood map. Which one has fallen farther?

id say cuba, how u can go from boyz n the hood to ratrace or wateva that hot mess was called is beyond me.
he cannot be forgiven for that movie -
Two words......
BOAT TRIP -
Definately Cuba.
But Wesley just needs to make a Blade IV or make more movies playing a charismatic character. -
Cuba. Cuba won an academy award but is doing Straight to DVD's now. Let me state that again, this ? WON A MUHFUCKING OSCAR, AND IS DOING STRAIGHT TO DVD FLICKS NOW. Ain't even no excuse for that. He kept doing all those happy dancing black man characters and pretty much deaded his own career.
Wesley can bounce back from his situation though, He's been doing straight to DVD's too, but if he was to make a Blade IV I'm pretty sure everybody will forget about his tax situation. -
Gotta be Cuba, dudes like a joke now.
Wes' direct to DVD flicks are actually pretty damn good. -
in case yall niaags didn't know the reason why wesley fell off is cecuz he got blackballed in hollywood about blade 3 and money. a lot of people really won't mess with him now
-
I cant say...both them ? fell off hard
-
Cuba..Wesley's latest roles are still respectable and he still has potential to come back.
-
cuba fell off hard
-
both are great actors,you guys have to remember how limited roles for black actors are in hollywood,so i see no problem with them doing a straight to dvd movie. A check is a check, kids gotta eat. Besides what are these guys gonna play in white hollywood Edward Cullen ??
-
nah ? that, i guess its a case of principles.
i cant picture a will smith(though he has had some dodgy roles), morgan freeman, denzel, forrest whitaker starring in rat race/boat trip.... Cuba gooding Jr is a shame to himself and his family name. -
cuba hands down. he fell farther, faster, harder
-
id say cuba fell off the hardest out of maybe any actor, black or white. But I heard shadowboxer was pretty good.
