Will Smith’s Oscar incident has brought him a multitude of troubles, but one of them just came to light today. If you’ve been anticipating Will Smith’s upcoming movie ‘Fast and Loose,’ you’ll have to wait a bit longer.
You must recall the situation involving Chris Rock and Will Smith at the Oscars in 2022. It was the mishap that took out all of the ceremony’s spotlights.
Since then, many of Will’s supporters, friends, and colleagues have flipped against him. Will Smith did, in fact, slap Chris Rock in front of the audience on live television. And it’s all because Chris made a joke about Will’s loving wife.
After that, Chris continued with her performance and did his best to show that it was alright. Surprisingly, Chris Rock didn’t press any charges against Will Smith.
But looks like Will is still suffering from the actions he took during the ceremony.
