Streaming platform, Netflix, has reportedly canceled the production of the film ‘fast and loose‘ by Will Smith.
Smith plays Mob boss and rogue CIA agent in the movie.
It was gathered that Sony has also halted the production of Bad boys 4 with Smith.
The decision was made known after the actor slapped Comedian Chris Rock at the ceremony award of the Oscars on Sunday, March 27, 2022.
Smith shocked the entertainment world by mounting the stage during the live broadcast of the Oscars and hitting Rock over a joke about the actor’s wife.
Will Smith had resigned from Oscars Academy, the body that awards the Oscars on Friday, five days after he assaulted Rock.
The actor said his actions, which overshadowed Hollywood’s glitziest night of the year, were “shocking, painful and inexcusable.”

Attendees at the Dolby Theatre watched open-mouthed as Smith mounted the stage and slapped Rock across the face after the comic made a joke about his wife’s closely cropped head.
He returned to his seat and shouted obscenities at Rock, who has been widely praised for keeping a cool head and getting things back on track.
Half an hour after the astonishing attack, Smith was awarded the best actor Oscar for his role in sports biopic “King Richard.”
There have been conflicting reports in recent days over whether Smith was asked to leave the ceremony, with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences saying he refused to go.
The group said this week it was starting disciplinary action against Smith – only the fifth Black man to win the movie world’s higest individual award for a man – and warned he could face a rare expulsion.
