While promoting Emancipation, Will Smith commented on the fact that audiences don’t want to see his new work: “I totally understand – if someone isn’t ready, I will totally respect that and allow them space if they’re not ready. My main concern is my team – Antoine has done what I consider to be the greatest job of his entire career. The people on this team have done some of the best work of their entire careers, and I hope my actions don’t punish my team. Now, this is what I’m working on.🇧🇷
The actor added:I hope the material — the strength of the film, the timing of the story — I hope the good that can be done will open people’s hearts, if nothing else, to see, learn about, and support the incredible artists in and around this film.”
“Emancipation” is based on a true story and stars Smith as an escaped slave named Peter, known to the world as “Whipped Peter” after he was handed out pictures of keloid scars on his back to show the brutality of slavery. The film follows Peter as he navigates the swamps of Louisiana to escape plantation owners who nearly kill him.
