‘Wild West’ and ‘The Legend of Bagger Vance’

The string of hits reached a conclusion in 1999 with Wild Wild West, a sci-fi cowhand Western co-starring Kevin Kline.

The golf movie The Legend of Bagger Vance (2000) was his next huge film, with Smith playing the caddie to Matt Damon’s unwell swinger.

Oscar Nomination for ‘Ali’

The 2001 biopic Ali, based on boxing legend Muhammad Ali, allowed Smith the chance to regain his big-screen swagger. His turn as the charismatic boxing incredible saw Smith put in an amazing exhibition, training and disciplining himself to extraordinary lengths to do justice to the athleticism — and self image — of the nominal character. The film disappointed in the cinematic world despite a record-breaking opening day, yet Smith’s presentation was strong enough to earn him his first Foundation Grant nomination.

‘Men in Black II,’ ‘Bad Boys II’ and ‘I, Robot’

Several sequels were straightaway, with Will Smith reprising his roles in Men In Black II (2002) and Bad Boys II (2003).

The film performed well, grossing more than $144 million domestically.

‘Hitch’ and ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’

Smith also wrote the signature song and included it on his 2005 album, Lost and Found. Hitch was a massive success, and it was followed in 2006 by another basic and financial hit, The Pursuit of Happyness (2006). Starring alongside his genuine son Jaden, Smith spellbound audiences with the story of a single dad who has to construct a day to day existence from scratch. He got his second Institute Grant nomination for Best Entertainer for his presentation.

‘I Am Legend’

‘Focus,’ ‘Concussion,’ ‘Suicide Squad’
