From his early days as a fresh-faced rapper from West Philadelphia to becoming one of Hollywood’s most beloved and versatile actors, Will Smith has enchanted audiences with his charm, talent, and charisma for decades.

With a career spanning over 30 years, Smith is not just a box office sensation; he’s also a dedicated family man and philanthropist.

It was “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” that catapulted him to TV stardom. But his transition to the big screen would solidify his status as a Hollywood megastar with films like “Bad Boys,” “Independence Day,” “Men in Black,” “Hitch,” “Ali,” and “I Am Legend.”

In 2022, he secured an Academy Award for his performance as the father of Venus and Serena Williams in “King Richard.”
