Will Smith says he considered suicide at one point in his career.
“I’m writing my book and it’s exposing my life, and so many things that people don’t know about me,” Smith said in a moment that sees him sitting at the head of a table with his family surrounding him. “That was the only time in my life that I ever considered suicide.”
Will Smith: The Best Shape of My Life is a Youtube original coming out on November 8. You can see the trailer below.
“What you’ve come to understand as Will Smith, the alien-annihilating MC, the bigger-than-life movie star, is largely a construction, a carefully crafted and honed character designed to protect myself. To hide myself from the world. To hide the coward.”
