Will Smith to star as Iraq war vet in crime thriller

Will Smith looks happy

In his upcoming project, actor Will Smith is set to take on the role of an Iraq war veteran in the crime thriller, Sugar Bandits. The film, which has been generating a lot of buzz, tells the story of a former Special Forces soldier who joins a group of vigilantes determined to eradicate the drug trade in Boston. However, things are not as they seem in this captivating tale.

Initially, Sugar Bandits was slated to be a Universal Pictures production with director Joe Carnahan at the helm. But the project has since shifted gears and is now being launched in the independent marketplace. Despite his star power, Smith will not be playing the lead role in the film but will instead be taking on a supporting role. As of now, there isn't a director attached to the project, but the script has garnered significant attention from potential buyers.
