Will Smith won his first Oscar for the Best Actor at the 94th annual Academy Awards Sunday night of March 27, 2022 for his outstanding portrayal of Richard Williams, the father and coach of his famous daughters, the tennis legends, Venus and Serena Williams in "King Richard", the 2021 American biographical sports drama directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and written by Zach Baylin.
Smith also won another "Oscar" for the Best Slap when he smacked Chris Rock who came on stage to present the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature and made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith being in “G.I. Jane” because of her shaved head. Smith then took the stage to slap Rock. Although it appeared to be a joke at first, Smith returned to his seat and yelled at Rock, “Keep my wife’s name out of your fucking mouth!”
Later Denzel Washington got up to speak to Smith privately. Smith revealed during his best actor speech that Washington said to him, “At your highest moment, be careful, that’s when the devil comes for you.”
