In a TV special filmed before the 94th Academy Awards took place, Will Smith recounted a prescient and frightening vision he had of his "whole life ... getting destroyed."
While speaking with David Letterman for his series "My Next Guest Needs No Introduction," Smith recalled the "individual most hellish psychological experience" he ever endured while on a spiritual retreat in Peru. The fourth season of Letterman's talk show premiered recently on Netflix.
A title card at the top of the Smith episode notes that the interview was taped prior to the 2022 Oscars ceremony, during which Smith infamously walked onstage and slapped presenter Chris Rock in the face.
