Following the controversy, the actor was recently seen making his first-ever appearance on the red carpet after the incident.

Apparently, the actor graced the event for the Los Angeles premiere of his new film Emancipation.
Will Smith’s upcoming film, Emancipation is directed by Antoine Fuqua and stars Will Smith as a slave in Louisiana in the 1860s who escapes his plantation. The film is based on a true story of a former slave named “Gordon”. Apart from Will Smith, the film also stars Ben Foster and Charmaine Bingwa. Speaking about the filming experience, Will told Variety, “It’s certainly unlocked an empathy and a gratitude that I get to live in this time. And a gratitude for the people who went before me and before us, to take beatings, so I can stand here today.”
