Will Smith Vs. Sean Penn: A Mysterious ‘Spitting’ Controversy

Sean Penn
  • Sean Penn expresses dismay over the Will Smith and Chris Rock incident.
  • Penn criticizes the audience’s reaction to the incident.
  • He draws parallels between his past assault conviction to this incident.

Sean Penn continues to grapple with the aftermath of Will Smith’s infamous slap of Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars, which transpired nearly a year and a half ago.

In a recent conversation with Variety, Sean Penn expressed his bewilderment at the infamous incident involving Will Smith and Chris Rock, asking, “Why the heck did you just spit on yourself and everybody else with this foolish thing?” The actor went on to express his dismay, asking, “Why are you guys standing and applauding his worst moment as a person?”

He also expressed disappointment in the event organizers for preventing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from making an appearance.

Penn drew parallels to his own 1987 assault conviction, suggesting a connection to the infamous incident.

While acknowledging that he had only met Will Smith once and found him to be pleasant, Penn praised Smith’s exceptional performance in King Richard.

However, he asserted that Smith’s actions on that fateful night undermined his own career achievements and the prestigious honor he had received.

Robin Wright reveals her relationship status with ex Sean Penn 

Robin Wright
  • Robin Wright explained that she and Sean Penn are just friends.
  • She added, “Getting divorced and raising children is the hardest thing.
  • She said that it was “a privilege” to be “friends with the father of your children.

After being recently spotted together for the first time in years, Robin Wright explained that she and her ex-husband Sean Penn are just friends.

In an interview, Wright was asked about their current relationship status. She responded that it was “a privilege” to be “friends with the father of your children” because getting divorced and raising children is “one of the hardest things in life.”

The 56-year-old former star of “House of Cards” continued, “When you get estranged and become friends again… we were attending an event for our kids. I believe that’s lovely and I hope that for everyone. We will always be a family, whether we are together or apart.

The former couple, who were wed from 1996 to 2010, was seen together at LAX last month for the first time since 2017.

After four years of marriage, Wright filed for divorce from her spouse, Clément Giraudet, only four months prior to the outing.

On the other side, Leila George, an Australian actress, filed for divorce from Penn in April 2022, a year after they started dating.

The “Dead Man Walking” star eventually acknowledged that he was to blame for his relationship failing with George.

The “Mystic River” actor confessed to Hollywood Authentic in April of last year: “There’s a woman I’m so in love with, Leila George, who I only see on a day-to-day basis now because I f-ked up the marriage.

“Technically, we were married for one year, but I was a very irresponsible guy for five years.”

Together, Penn and Wright are parents to two kids: son Hopper, 29, and daughter Dylan, 31.
