TWO years after that Chris Rock Oscars slap, Will Smith is preparing for his Hollywood comeback
Insiders told me Will was being lined up for a mega PR push in the coming weeks ahead of the release of his new film, Bad Boys 4, in June.
A source said: “This film is Will’s big comeback and his team are going all out to get him out there.
“He will deal head on with the slap and how he has changed since then. It’s likely he will also speak about his marriage to Jada, after they secretly split up more than six years ago.
“The slap is still a bit of an elephant in the room and Will is going to tackle it head on.
“He is booked to appear on a number of big US TV shows and will be an open book.
“People love a redemption story and Will has done a lot of work on himself.
“He also has a huge fan base who want him back in the thick of the action.”
I have to admit I love Will and think his films are brilliant.
So I, for one, am more than ready to hear his side of the story.
Last year, Jada revealed Chris asked her out years before the slap.
In a preview of her book, Worthy, Jada shared that Chris asked her out on a date while rumours swirled that she and Will were divorcing.
