Men in Black is his lane. Scifi comedy.
Yeah, entry level easy to understand type stuff. Not really anything with a complex lore.
Give him Indepedence day, Men in black type stuff.

Save the Matrix, Inception, type films for someone else.

He's the type of dude who only ever watched dragonball z, but never got any deeper into anime. (nothing wrong with that)
He'd be great in Star Wars , but trash in star trek, great in back to the future, but trash in blade runner.

he needs entry level sci fi. Which is why he did a movie like bright., basically a hood movie with sci fi elements.

No excuses. He just was afraid of taking chances and made bad decisions because of it. He read the script to Bright and he loved that one...

Will Smith Reveals He Rejected Christopher Nolan's Inception: 'I Don't Think I've Ever Even Said It Publicly Before'

“I don’t think I’ve ever even said it publicly before,” Smith began in an interview on UK radio station Kiss Xtra.

“Chris Nolan brought me Inception first, and I didn’t get it. I’ve never said that out loud. Now that I think about it, it’s those movies that go into those alternate realities, they don’t pitch well. But I’m hurt by those two.”

Selma Hayek was in that movie. We know why Will chose that one.
