Los Angeles, August 20 - Hollywood superstar, Will Smith's biopic, which was put on the back burner following his Oscar controversy, is reportedly back in development at Netflix.

Will Smith's biopic was announced by Netflix, but the streamer halted talks over a film of the actor's life in the wake of his Oscars scandal where Smith infamously slapped comedian Chris Rock at this year's Oscars for comparing his 50-year-old wife Jada Pinkett Smith's shaven head to GI Jane's buzzcut. But things seem to be taking a shift at Netflix now regarding the biopic.



A source told The Sun (via outlook India), "Will was left out in the cold by Netflix and Apple+ in the wake of the slap. He has since apologized and stepped out of the spotlight for a lengthy period. With this in mind, it is broadly agreed enough time has passed to let the dust settle. It has been made clear discussions can be started again about a biopic that Netflix was interested in".

"Arguably, the slap, and the fallout, are pivotal moments in Will's life and will become part of the storyline of his life. Netflix wants to be part of those conversations and Will's team has no doubt Apple will follow suit", says the report.

The "Men In Black", won his maiden Oscar for the biographical sports drama film "King Richard". He played the role of Richard Williams, the father, and coach of famed tennis players Venus and Serena Williams. Smith will next be seen in the action thriller "Emancipation", scheduled to release in 2023.

Stay tuned...
