I still think he has one more massive box office smash in him.

Just has to stop choosing garbage scripts.

Will didn't change. You did. The films did. The Era did.

How many actors that were Will Smith status are still headlining films today?

He's got nothing to prove. Everyone knows what he's capable of.

Him and Tom Cruise are two of my favorite actors.

They're acting is good and consistent.
Some would say that's the problem. That he's stuck in the 90s.

Ft. Stewart, Ga
His latest film just did OVER $100 Millie in its first week and he was praised as one of the standouts of the film. Even critics who shyt on it made note of Smith being a bright spot. He also received stellar reviews for his performance in Concussion.

He's got Collateral Beauty ,Bright, and Bad Boys 3 on the horizon. Collateral Beauty is another dramatic role, the issue seems to be that in his dramatic roles he's often the only good part of the movie. Everything else (writing, direction, etc) seems to be mediocre.

Bad Boys 3 is going to be a guaranteed hit. There's been pent up demand for the better part of 10 years for that film.

Bright is a reteaming with David Ayers (director of Suicide Squad) that's supposedly going to be a Netflix exclusive and the most expensive they've ever done. It's a Sci/Fantasy movie and Will always shows up in his Sci-Fi flicks.

Collateral Beauty might be the dramatic role that finally "clicks" all on cylinders for him. They've lined up an impressive cast (Michael Pena, Edward Norton, Kate Winslet, Hellen Mirren) but we'll see.

Dude looked incredulous in just about every still shot or photo we saw of him on set or promoting. Having seen the film now we know why
:dwillhuh:
Where do you guys come up with this stuff?

Will was great in the film. He was having fun with the role. Best thing he's done in years.

All the castmates are constantly seen with each other and all look like and even say they've formed tight bonds.


Look at this guy being incredulous

I don't see any on set pictures or promo shots with him. These mostly look like red carpet shots you know where actors/ensembles tend to feign chemistry and pretend they all got along like a house on fire so ppl see the movie

Yes. That photo of him tattooing his castmate with a smile on his face is a red carpet shot.
