Project was put on hold after Smith-Chris Rock slap saga
The sequel was reportedly put on hold after Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards in 2022. Back in May 2022, Sony Pictures Chief Tom Rothman rubbished the reports and said, "That [slap saga] was an example of a very good person having a very bad moment in front of the world." The film is helmed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah.
