New York, April 9 (ANI): Wesley Snipes, who was recently released from jail, is set to hit the silver screen.
According to Hollywood insiders, action legend Sylvester Stallone has offered 50-year-old Snipes a role in his new "Expendables" sequel, the New York Post reported.
A source told Confidenti@l that Sly wants to help Wesley get back on his feet.
