Will Smith ‘loses sleep’ over impact iconic Oscars slap will have on new film

Will Smith confessed that he has lost sleep over the impact the infamous Oscars slap will have on his upcoming Hollywood blockbuster.

The King Richard actor made international headlines at this year's Oscars ceremony in March after he slapped comedian Chris Rock for making a joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

Will, 54, spoke candidly to Entertainment Weekly about the incident's impact on his upcoming movie Emancipation.

He shared: "The only discomfort my heart has around that is that so many people have done spectacular work on this film.

"My hope is that my team isn't penalised at all for my actions. I think (director) Antoine (Fuqua) and (cinematographer) Robert (Richardson) and Ben (Foster) and Charmaine (Bingwa) — everyone has done such spectacular work."
