Someone, update the score card. Will Smith's record in choosing science fiction classics now is 50/50. The "Men in Black" and "Independence Day" Starwar gloriously declined the role of Neo in "The Matrix", " and during the time Smith's recent appearance at British radio station Kiss XtraHost Craig Mitch asked Smith about the decision and whether there were similar films, he turned down.

Smith initially said "hurts too bad" to answer the question. But after he apparently reached the stage of accepting sadness, he missed this bomb:

"I think I have never said it before publicly ... and I will say that now because we open up to each other. Chris Nolan brought me" first "first, and I didn't get it. I have never said it aloud before. "

In 2010, months after the publication of "Start", The Hollywood reporter reported That Smith was Nolan's second selection for the lead role, after Brad Pitt and before Leonardo DiCaprio (who said to play in the finished film). However, Smith argues that this is the first time he ever spoke to turn "the beginning", and I get why it stabbed just as the "matrix" did. "Enrollment" was a huge success, critical and commercially. Along with the "Dark Knight", he set the stage The lasting record of Nolan's success as a director and in the box office. I don't think "beginning" is Christopher Nolan's best movie (though close), but that is The film that proved he does not need Batman to make a blockbuster.

The Matrix and Inception are pretty similar films, not just because Will Smith said not the two. (Hey, at least he said yes to the "suicide detachment", will!). Both are for dreams and different layers of reality, as well as adventurous action films with a more thoughtful side. Settings are being built as a rotating hallway in "Start" Effects like a bullet time in the "matrix", who played with the spatial reality of dreams.

Smith noticed those similarities in the Kiss Xtra interview and concluded: "Now, when I think about it, these are those films that enter those alternative realities. They don't put us well."

Smith told Keys Xtra that he thought he was lowering the "matrix" to be "one of (his) beautiful scars". In 2019

"As it turns out, (" Matrix "directors Vahovski) are geniuses! But there is a good line in meeting the field between the genius and what I experienced at the meeting, "Smith explained. Then he continued to recite the field (or at least his memory of it):

"So, my friend, we think how, imagine you are in the fight, and then you are a jump, imagine if you could stop jumping in the middle of the jump, but then people could see around you 360 while jumping, while you stop jumping ... Then, we'll invent these cameras and then people can see it."

He concludes his story: "So, I did the" Wild Wild West "." Smith thinks he worked best, not only because Keanu Reeves was perfect for Neo, but because Lawrence Fishburn was perfect for Morpheus.

Smith's comment on "NO (Getting)" "Start" paths with what he said about the refusal of the "matrix". After its publication, "Inception" built a reputation as a Confusing The film, mostly because of its structure of sleep nesting dolls within the dream and so on. Movies where you can't say what is real and what is no longer confusing, in "Start", you also need to take care of what is happening in what sleep. I really think everything slides to a place of second viewing (and when you accept that It doesn't matter if what is happening at the end of "early" is real or dream). But I also understand why tracking those stories layers in a script or terrain (without seeing visually) it would be difficult.

Saying not both the "matrix" and "Inception", Will Smith has some of the most beautiful scars in Hollywood.
