Fans on Twitter were quick to judge: “What has he done to his face?” Some were praising him, adding that he looks just the same he did back when The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air debuted.

The whole purpose of Smith’s appearance on the BBC’s TV show was to promote his latest movie, King Richard. Smith plays the titular character, who is based on the real-life Richard Williams. The latter is best known as the father of Serena and Venus Williams. The story follows Richard in his attempts to help his daughters make a career for themselves in the world of tennis. Smith gave an interesting insight into the film’s creation, stating that at first, the piece didn’t receive the backing of Williams’s sisters.

Talking about what went into an early conversation with the sisters, the Hancock actor said: ” Venus and Serena when the idea came up they were a little hesitant, and they said they would executive produce the film but would wait until they saw the movie until they decided to put their names on it. But they were so honored, they agreed to put their names on the film. And when you make a movie like this there really is only one audience, and it’s the people you are depicting. And when they walked out of that theatre and agreed to put their names on this movie, it was one of the highest points in my career.”

Further talking about the Williams family’s reaction to the film, Smith admitted that he doesn’t know if Richard saw it. This is what Will said about Serena and Venus’s father: “He’s not very well. We don’t know if he hasn’t seen the film, but Serena said it would be unlike him if he didn’t watch it.”

The interesting part about this piece is that Will Smith once again showed his generous side to the world. The Bad Boys actor paid for some of the co-star’s expenses out of his pocket. This is what he said about what transpired on the set between him and other people included in the creation of King Richard: ” All I can do is my part, so it’s always an honor and a pleasure for me to do my part, and everybody put in brilliant work. It was the COVID shutdowns, people really stuck with us. It was a much more difficult process than anybody thought they were signing up for. I just felt that it was fair.” According to the Hollywood Reporter, Smith earned close to $40 million from this film.
