The consequences of the slapping at Oscar
Will Smith is starting to suffer the consequences of his shocking slapping at Oscar 2022. A series of collaboration projects with the actor have had to be temporarily suspended in the near future.
Hollywood Reporter reported that Netflix has announced a temporary hiatus from filming Fast and Loose starring Will Smith. The actor's filming schedule for Bad Boys 4 was also postponed even though he had received the script before the awards ceremony.
In the television industry, the film Emancipation, which has finished filming and is in post-production, is unlikely to meet expectations due to Smith's scandal, despite being highly appreciated.
According to PR experts, Will Smith's career will be affected a lot, especially the above story will become a topic of discussion in the next period.
A producer shared on The Wrap: "I don't know how the recent incident will affect Will's future career. But Tom Cruise and Mel Gibson have faced terrible consequences for their wrongdoings. Will Smith will be replaced by other names such as Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Tom Holland".
Will Smith's future after Oscar 2022
Before the incident, Will Smith was considered a box office guarantee because of the success of the films he participated in. In his career, he has pocketed a huge fortune in films such as Men in Black 3, Bad Boys For Life, Aladdin, Suicide Squad...
However, after the taiwan for Chris Rock, the top actor's glorious career will certainly decline. In CBC's opinion, in addition to the film industry, Smith's Westbrook Inc. is also affected.
Specifically, the recruitment of new projects for the film studio that Smith invested in was forced to stop. The actor's box office appeal tends to decrease sharply. At the same time, the Academy of Motion Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) has officially banned Will Smith from appearing at all Academy events for the next 10 years.
"Will Smith may return to acting and producing big-budget projects, but there is certainly no work that is as widely welcomed as King Richard," concluded Scott Mendelson, a Forbes revenue analyst.
