Will Smith is hoping to get in touch with one of the highest paid American actor to revive his acting career.

Has Will Smith Lost Support of $570 Million Worth Hollywood Star Following Oscar SlapGate?

2022 has been a bittersweet year for Will Smith. The American actor touched new
heights with an Oscar award for his role as Richard Williams in King Richards.
However, all his achievements were overshadowed by the infamous Oscar slap gate
scandal. Smith let his emotions overpower him in the award ceremony in March
2022 as he caused one of the biggest controversies by slapping the host Chris
Rock.

The consequences of the same have not been good, to say the least. As a
punishment, a ban of ten years has been imposed on Will Smith
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/will-smith/] from all Academy events. Not only
that, it took numerous apologies, therapies, and introspection over almost ten
months for Smith to make a comeback to the screen. The award-winning actor
launched his movie Emancipation in early December. However, the road ahead might
not be easy for the Aladdin star. Rumors suggest that one of the highest-paying
Hollywood actors has shunned him.

WILL SMITH WISHES TO COLLABORATE WITH THIS HOLLYWOOD LEGEND

After returning to acting with Emancipation, Will Smith is eyeing a big break
with a collaboration with Tom Cruise. He is on a mission to recover his image
and there can be nothing better than a project with Cruise. However, sources
suggest that the American producer has shown no interest in working with Smith.

“Will has reached out to Tom a few times. Trying to reconnect and see if they
can hang out and brainstorm some projects together. A solid movie with Tom would
guarantee Will’s return, or so he thinks,” the source suggested as mentioned

Cruise has always been careful about the people he is friends with in the
industry. The Mission Impossible actor believes that it will be too early and
risky to join hands with King Richard’s star, as the Oscar slap gate is still
fresh. Meanwhile, Will Smith is not the only public personality who has been
banned by Tom Cruise. A few days back, it was reported that the Hollywood legend
has also shunned Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

after their continuous allegations against the royal family.
