Will Smith, the Men in Black star, has always been in some or other controversy throughout his career. While Smith became the king of controversy in 2022 for all the drama that unfolded during the Oscar ceremony, the actor did not have any less drama back in the day. Even back in 2013, the actor was making news after he clicked some racy photos with Barbie star Margot Robbie.

Will Smith Couldn’t Keep His Hand off Margot Robbie

Will Smith was making headlines in 2013 for his unprofessional behavior with then-23-year-old co-star Margot Robbie. Both Robbie and Smith were working on Focus and during the process, the actors seemed to have gotten pretty close to each other which also sparked rumors of their affairs.

All of this started when Smith and Robbie had a rather racy photo shoot during their cast party in New Orleans. As reported by Pig Six, despite being married Smith was not acting like he was and was also seen getting all cozy with Robbie. Talking about this source reported “He wasn’t acting like a married man. He gave no signs that he was in a committed relationship… what kind of married man would go into a photo booth with a sexy 23-year-old and start to undress?”

The sources also reported that even when the curtains were pulled back, both of them were seen laughing, hugging, and nuzzling each other in the dark. Not only this it was also reported that even after the photo shoot, Robbie hopped onto Smith’s back and they headed towards his trailer. Talking about this the sources said, “After they left the party, they were gone all night.” 

While the rumors were once said to have affected Smith’s marriage, the couple has stood strong and are still together.

Margot Robbie to Return with Queen of the Air

After the box office success of Barbie, Margot Robbie is now said to return as Lillian Leitzel in Queen of the Air. The reports of the movie and its development came back first in 2016. While there is no information as to why the movie has been held back for such a long time, reports suggest that the movie is under production.

The story revolves around real-life trapeze artists Lillian Leitzel and Alfredo Codona who were known for their craft in the mid-1900s. This story of Queen in the Air follows the rise of their fame in the circus, their marriage, and their unfortunate death.

Further information on the movie, its cast, and its release date has not been made available yet.
