Lepanec is expensive. A week has passed since the controversial Oscar slap by actor Will Smith (53) and comedian Chris Rock (57). It is not yet clear exactly what the effects of this event will be, but there is already a lot of company distancing from Smith. Netflix pushed the film with him in the lead role in the background, and Sony also suspended the film Miserable 4, for which the popular American has already been given a screenplay, The Hollywood Reporter reported.

Slap that herec Will Smith rammed comedian Chris Rock at this year’s award Oscarswill probably have major consequences. Not only has Smith officially resigned from the American Film Academy, but film companies are beginning to turn their backs on him.
One week before the ceremony, Netflix’s Fast and Loose lost to director David Leitch. Will Smith was to play the lead role in it. Instead, director Leitch moved to Fall Guy with Ryan Gosling in the lead role. However, after the director’s departure and the Oscar-winning facade, Netflix quietly pushed Fast and Loose into the background. The information was brought by a foreign website The Hollywood Reporter.
Other projects are being suspended
Post-production now also includes the action thriller Emancipation from Apple+. The debut was scheduled for 2022, but the exact release date is unknown. Apple declined to comment.
Another film – Mizerové 4 – was already in active development. Smith received the first 40 pages of the screenplay before the awards ceremony, but the film will now be suspended, according to the aforementioned website.
Slap for a joke on behalf of a woman
Comedian Chris Rock earned a slap in the face for Will Smith Smith’s Wives – Jady Pinkett Smith (50). He compared Rock to bald Demi Moore in GI Jane (1997). But Jada suffers from slope (ie a disease causing hair loss, ed. Note). The joke did not meet the Smiths with great understanding, and then the actor came on stage and slapped the comedian in front of the audience. He subsequently apologized for herbut the act can no longer take back.
