Almost a month has passed since Will Smith issued a public apology for an incident at the Oscars when he punched comedian Chris Rock for making a bad joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. The repentance of the actor Rock ridiculed at his first performance. And it seems that for a long time he will remember this case on his shows. But Netflix, which froze all projects with Will Smith after the Oscars, seems to have been impressed by these words. According to insiders, they are ready to meet with the actor again to discuss shooting his biopic. It, according to the script, will include many candid stories and personal moments from the life of Smith.
The slap and its aftermath, of course, were the turning points in Will's life and may now be part of the storyline of his biopic. In any case, Netflix wants to again participate in the talks for the filming of this film, and Will's team has no doubt that Apple will follow suit.
After Will Smith hit the host, comedian Chris Rock, during the Oscar ceremony for a joke about his wife Jada, many viewers, as well as colleagues, condemned him. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences also noted that violence in any form is unacceptable. Will Smith himself apologized twice. Once when he received an Oscar for his role in the film King Richard, and the second - publicly on social networks, making a statement.
