Will Smith

The waiting is over, Men in Black 3 will start shooting soon!  Will Smith was seen in NYC on the 20th entering the Trump hotel and we are all excited to follow the shooting schedule and see what other actors will be involved in the film!  On his way to NYC, Smith donated 30 computers to a school in Philadelphia that had 60 of thier stolen.  So far 30 had been returned to the school, and so Smith decided to donate the rest.  Smith grew up in Philadelphia and attended Overbook High School, which is now the name of his entertainment and artist management company.

Overbrook Entertainment, Will Smith’s company, announced that their opening project will be a “re-imagination of the classic Broadway musical Annie, as a vehicle for Willow Smith.” The successful young star Willow, who released the hit single Whip My Hair not too long ago, will be join her parents and Jay-Z in the making of the film as Annie herself. Her brother Jaden Smith also recently starred in the new version of The Karate Kid.

There have been other adaptations, but the most famous one hails from 1968 and starred Cliff Robertson, who won the Oscar for playing Charly, a mentally challenged man who is a human test subject for a procedure that ups the intelligence quotient. The Algernon of the title is a lab mouse who also undergoes the surgery. When Charly learns the truth behind the experiment, the tissues come out big-time.
