Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro Officially Reunite in the Crime Blockbuster Leaving Streaming

Will Smith has certainly made some interesting creative choices in his career; he has admitted that in addition to a lead role in Quentin Tarantino’s revisionist Western Django Unchained, he turned down the role of Neo in The Matrix. He turned down the Wachowskis’ sci-fi masterpiece partially because he thought their pitch wasn’t convincing, and partially because he wanted to star in Wild Wild West, a steampunk Western directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. That movie bombed at the box office, but it wasn’t the only time Smith headlined a big-budget movie that left critics and audiences scratching their heads. In 2013, he starred in M. Night Shyamalan’s After Earth, which holds a 12% score on Rotten Tomatoes. But one of Smith’s most offbeat movies is an animated movie aimed at children that was inspired heavily by The Godfather.
