Will Smith recalls ‘unforgivable’ prank he pulled on wife Jada with one of her Sex Scenes – ‘The Worst Part Of Acting’

Sex scenes, according to Will Smith, are the “worst part of acting.”

The 53-year-old actor appeared on The Graham Norton Show this week to promote his latest film, the Williams sister-focused drama King Richard, and chatted about the ups and downs of acting as well as the challenges of getting intimate on-screen.

The subject came up during a discussion with another guest, author Richard Osman, who said, “I’m not interested in writing sex scenes. I always find it very peculiar. Love and romance are absolutely fine, but I really don’t want to read about it, so I don’t write about it. Everyone you have ever met will think you are writing about yourself!”

Smith agreed with Osman and offered his own viewpoint, saying that “sex scenes are the worst part of acting.”

“When you watch it in a movie there is music and wine but on set, there is some big dude holding the microphone, chewing and watching you.”

The Hollywood star then spoke about his prank on his wife Jada, saying: ‘She was going to meet my family for the first time. I was raised in a very religious household and my grandmother Gigi is all the way down with Jesus…

‘Because she was didn’t know who Jada was, I put on a movie of hers and worked out that by the time Jada arrived my grandmother would be watching the love scene…

‘She walked in, my grandmother was in the middle of the scene and she looked up and said to Jada, ‘When I was growing up people didn’t have to take their clothes off to make a movie.’ Jada took me aside and said, ‘Why would you do that?’ …

Smith continued, “I said, ‘I promise you it’s funny, maybe not now, but one day this is going to provide us with years of joy.’ We have been together for 27 years and she literally hasn’t chuckled once!’”

Will also discussed his role as Venus and Serena Williams’ father in King Richard, saying, ‘It was such an opportunity to dive into the life of this family and spend time uncovering their amazing story…

‘He predicted Venus and Serena being the world’s number one and number two women’s tennis players two years before they were born! He wrote a 78-page plan. It was a really crazy prophecy and so amazing it’s hard to comprehend.’
