Will Smith continues to divide audiences after he controversially slapped Chris Rock on stage at the Oscars, with some Academy Award voters now insisting they won't support his new film Emancipation.
Will, 54, plays the lead role in the upcoming Apple TV drama, which focuses on the story of 'Whipped Peter' who was enslaved but managed to escape a Louisiana plantation before making his way to join the Union army.
The film will be released in December, making it eligible for a nomination for the 95th Academy Awards.
