William Hurt, Oscar-winning actor, dies aged 71

The estranged daughter of Richard Williams, whom Will Smith portrayed in "King Richard," is calling for the actor to be stripped of his Oscar following Sunday night’s events.  Sabrina Williams, 57, told the US Sun, "So Will Smith got angry, went overboard and assaulted another person.Then you just can’t apologize two minutes later. You lost your mind.

This is the moment Will Smith interrupted the Oscars and hit comedian Chris Rock. Will Smith hit Chris Rock in the face on stage after the comedian made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s haircut. Smith walked up on stage and appeared to hit Rock before returning to his seat and shouting: “Keep my wife’s name out of your f****** mouth.

Will Smith is speaking out and emotionally celebrating a win after an incredibly unexpected onstage moment just minutes before involving Chris Rock.

Making the best of a wild situation? Will Smith just won his first-ever Academy Award at the 2022 Oscars — nabbing the Best Actor trophy for his portrayal of Serena and Venus Williams‘ father, Richard Williams, in 2021’s King Richard — but his drama with Chris Rock overshadowed the moment.

Will Smith is an Oscar winner! Following a bit of controversy at Sunday’s 94th Academy Awards, the 53-year-old actor took home the Best Actor statuette for his role as Richard Williams, the father of Venus and Serena Williams, in King Richard.
