Sometimes there’s scheduling conflicts. Sometimes a director casts a wide net, knowing he’s going to get a bunch of rejections. Sometimes you get roped into a project as a favor or a quid pro quo (Vin Disel coming back for a cameo in FF: Tokyo Drift to get Chronicles of Riddick made, only to end up making nine more movies and counting) and it changes your career.
he’s also extremely dedicated to maintaining his brand. turning down Django Unchained does feel like a HUGE wiff to me though. Django is basically Deadshot if Deadshot lived in the Antebellum South (presumably after the California gold rush since he spends some time in Colorado). maybe Tarantino films can’t ever fit the Will Smith toxic positivity brand?
He also turned down Django Unchained. Will Smith is just shit at picking roles.
Thank God. He would have ruined it.
Why does Will Smith in Django Unchained make me think of Wow Wow.
I mean, he’s picked plenty of bangers.

I honestly can’t think of the last will smith movie I enjoyed
Bad Boys for Life was fun.
