Hollywood Executives Think Jaden and Willow Smith Are Crazy, Too
Jaden and Willow Smith don't seem like they want to be movie stars right now, which is just as well because their incredible New York Times interview appears to have frightened off Hollywood executives—at least if an email from the Sony Pictures Entertainment leaks are to be believed.
Below is an email chain between Tom Rothman, chairman of a Sony division called TriStar, Doug Belgrad, president of SPE's Motion Picture Group, and Amy Pascal, SPE's co-chairman about the legendary interview "Jaden and Willow Smith on Prana Energy, Time and Why School is Overrated."
"Read this," Rothman writes to Belgrad, passing on an email he had been forwarded from someone else. "they r home schooled: don't let this family date your movies!!!" The implication is clear: Keep the Smith kids away from Sony!
Belgrad, in turn, has passed it up the chain to Pascal.
Of course, Sony isn't about to take their own advice: Sony is planning to release a presently untitled Will Smith project in 2016, and I wouldn't bet them on dropping it.
