Will Smith understands if people don't watch his films post Oscar slap: 'My deepest hope...'
Meanwhile,Will recently opened up about the shocking incident. While speaking to Fox 5, the actor expressed his concern for the film and its makers, who may suffer due to his shocking actions.
"I completely understand if someone is not ready. I would absolutely respect that and allow them their space to not be ready. My deepest concern is my team. "Antoine has done what I think is the greatest work in his entire career... the people on this team have done some of the best work of their entire careers, and my deepest hope is that my actions don’t penalise my team," said Smith.
"So at this point, that’s what I’m working for." That’s what I’m hoping for. "I'm hoping that the material, the power of the film, the timeliness of the story. I'm hoping that the good that can be done will open people’s hearts at a minimum to see and recognise and support the incredible artists in and around this film," he added.
In April, during the Oscars ceremony, Will slapped comedian Chris Rock on the stage after he made a joke about Jada's bald head.This all happened when Chris took the stage to present an award and during his brief gig, he made a joke about Will's wife Jada Pinkett Smith's bald head, which is due to her alopecia condition.
His joke probably provoked Smith who quickly went on stage and slapped Rock.For his violent action, Will has faced immense backlash andAcademy has also banned him for 10 years.
