Will Smith – Aladdin & statements
The Hitch, I, Robot and Men in Black actor speak of his relief to reporters ahead of the London premiere of Aladdin – a ‘good movie’’. Smith plays the role of the Genie in Guy Ritchie’s new imagining of the 1992 animated classic – Aladdin. The actor said ‘’ It’s so nice to be doing this with a good movie. I’ve been in front of most of you with less than spectacular films and the first question [I’m asked] is: ‘So… how are Jada [Pinkett Smith] and the kids?'”
When he spoke about combining a lot of his skills for one role, he said ‘’ That was spectacular, the singing, dancing, drama, comedy, action, adventure, is everything I’ve cultivated as a performer for the last 30 years, so to be able to do it in one film is great.” The premiere of Aladdin came 3 months after Smith launched an online video series – Will Smith’s Bucket List. He also said that the online video series was an effort to escape fear and find “the freedom to do all of the things that I had put in my mind that I couldn’t do”.
Turning 50
Will Smith to Graham Norton Show: ‘’ I’d turned 50 and I’d created this wonderful life and this wonderful career, but I felt trapped by being Will Smith – I have kids so I can’t do that, or I’m famous so I can’t say that, or people look at me so I can’t behave like that.’’
‘’So part of the bucket list was to give myself the freedom to do all of the things that I had put in my mind that I couldn’t do’’.
‘’I’m now being adventurous, and I’ve always wanted to be that.”
£32.2 million mansion
Even if Smith spends most of his time filming and promoting his hit movies like Aladdin, he has the most incredible mansion to return to.
