Will he be the next Batman?

Then, taking advantage of the global popularity of "The New Batman," the movie will feature three spiders in the same frame as "Spider-Man: No Return."

However, Batman is played by Michael Keaton, Van Kimer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, Ben Affleck and Robert Pattinson.

Why cast Will Smith as Batman? Because Will Smith's action against Chris Rock is exactly the same as Batman's, and in line with Hollywood's political correctness.

Anyway, Will Smith has failed in his two previous best actor Oscar nominations.

Now that she has been nominated again, she has achieved her goal of becoming only the fifth black best actor in Oscar history, following Sidney Poitier, Denzel Washington, Jamie Foxx and Forest Whitaker.

Will Smith was crowned best actor thanks to King Richard.

The screenplay for King Richard, which tells the true story of Richard Williams, came second on Hollywood's 2018 list.

A father without any background, through the perseverance of will, nurtured tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams, belong to the sports inspirational genre that Hollywood is good at.

Compared to Dangal, which starred Aamir Khan, King Richard really doesn't come close in terms of quality.

Both at home and abroad, "Dangal" is in the lead on rating sites, and is generally uniformly positive.

Dangal scored 9.0 on Douban, 7.3 on King Richard, 8.4 on IMDb and 7.5 on King Richard.

But King Richard was a huge hit at the box office, raking in $1.025 billion worldwide on the strength of Will Smith, so it's all about Will Smith's acting.

Shi Huang deserves this award, in the film his acting is very solid, strong appeal.

First, King Richard is shot smoothly and smoothly, basically achieving the effect of emotional output and resonance, so that the audience can feel the same.

Second, Will Smith, who starred in the same genre as The Pursuit of Happyness, is in his element.

And the family, race, and inspiration involved in the film are pretty much Will Smith's true story, so he can make people laugh and cry and follow his performance into his emotions.

Finally, congratulations to Will Smith, the unique global box office draw of the first decade of the new century, for enjoying a second career after underestimating his son.

If it weren't for Will Smith, this year's Oscars would have been the quietest awards show yet.

Because Will Smith is the king of the box office. In his prime, he's as popular as Denzel Washington.

From the time he starred in Michael Bay's 1995 "Jedi Men" to the time he landed his son in 2010, no movie starring Will Smith had ever grossed less than $100 million worldwide.

"Jedi Men," $140 million; "Independence Day," $810 million; "Men in Black," $587 million; "Drag Race," $110 million; "Public Enemy," $340 million; "I Am Legend," $570 million.

Will Smith could sit back and make a lot of money, because he's the only one who can do these sequels, and they're not.

In addition, he also has two famous film history.

One is "Ali", the other is "The Pursuit of Happyness", especially the latter is the Hollywood inspirational film classic.

This is Will Smith. He can do science fiction, comedy, drama, film, TV, record. He's a king.

Sadly, Will Smith wasted his prime years trying to promote his son Jaden Smith.

Since The Karate Kid, Will Smith has made a series of big movies for his son. After Earth, A Year in the Life, they were all bad movies.

Shi Huang's own films have not escaped this cycle.

After films such as Suicide Squad and Lightspirit, Will Smith fell out of the A-list and had an eight-nine year hiatus before Disney's live-action animated film Aladdin.

The film once again put Will Smith back among the 100 million dollar guaranteed stars, earning $35 million in the same year as the 10th highest paid actor in the world according to Forbes.

Now Will Smith has figured out that his son, Jaden Smith, is too muddy to climb a wall and has to do it himself.

After "Aladdin," Will Smith-Ang Lee's "Gemini Killers," with $173 million worldwide, and "Jedi Men: Hot Pursuit," with $426 million.

Other upcoming films include "Jedi Men 4," "Speed Indulge" and "I Am Legend 2."

What is clear is that the three films will certainly do well at the global box office, as multiple streaming outlets are currently vying for distribution rights.

In addition, Will Smith has one more blockbuster following King Richard, and that's Emancipation.

The action thriller sold at a high price in the Cannes online marketplace, and Apple won after fierce competition from several major companies, with the purchase likely to cost more than $120 million.

If Apple is paying so much for this movie, it is betting on its prospects and money, which will surely take the global box office by storm once it is released.

So who says the Emperor is out of fashion? He'll come back to prove who's the real king of the box office, with so many sequels to his name.

Of course, the other thing that can prove whether an actor is a Hollywood superstar is his salary and whether he gets a cut of the box office.

Will Smith made $50,000 for his first movie, and by the time he got Hancock, his salary had risen to $20 million.

He is also the only star in the history of films with eight consecutive films grossing more than $100 million, and is considered the last actor in Hollywood to be able to stand alone at the box office.

Will Smith now starts with more than $40 million in salary plus box office profits, which is why he generously gave his share of King Richard to his co-stars.

However, Will Smith has been criticized for his poor choice of films.

He turned down "Mr. And Mrs. Smith," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Django Unchained" in favor of bad movies like "Drag Race."

Fortunately, Will Smith had enough classics to make his descent long enough for his current comeback to be a peerless king.
