Film Deaths[]

  • King of New York (1990) [Thomas Flanigan]: Shot repeatedly in the stomach under the edge of Wesley's bulletproof vest by Laurence Fishburne. He dies shortly afterwards as David Caruso attempts CPR. 
  • New Jack City (1991) [Nino Brown]: Shot in the chest by Bill Cobbs, on the courthouse stairs, as Ice-T looks on impassively. Wesley then falls over a railing and down several flights onto the marble floor, where onlookers rush to his side.
  • Demolition Man (1993) [Simon Phoenix]: Frozen to death with cryogenic fluid, before he is shattered by Sylvester Stallone with a kick to his frozen head.
  • Liberty Stands Still (2002) [Joe/Alex]: Commits suicide by shooting himself under the chin to avoid being arrested and reunite with his dead daughter in the afterlife. His body is shown lying on the floor afterwards when the police rush in.
  • Chaos (2005) [Lorenz/Jason York]: Shot repeatedly in the stomach/torso by Ryan Phillippe as Wesley tries to stab him with a harpoon following a fight in the docks. His body is later seen floating in the water after he falls off a pier. 
  • Brooklyn's Finest (2009) [Casanova Phillips]: Shot to death by Michael K. Williams' henchman Jas Anderson in a drive-by shooting, while Wesley is talking to Don Cheadle.
  • Armed Response (2017) [Isaac]: Electrocuted to death by the AI computer as he bangs on a window to stop Dave Annable.
  • Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) [Eric Brook/Blade]: Possibly mortally wounded when he is stabbed through the back with a machete. Wesley is then, presumably, absorbed by Alioth (along with Jennifer Garner and Channing Tatum), after Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman leave the void. He is last shown holding his wound, as Alioth prepares to devour them before the portal closes, leaving the result ambiguous. Ryan later asks for their allies in the void to be rescued, and Dafne Keen (who was in the same area as Wesley during the potential death) is shown to be alive and well, so Wesley's survival is possible.
