2022 has been a bittersweet year for Will Smith. The American actor touched new heights with an Oscar award for his role as Richard Williams in King Richards. However, all his achievements were overshadowed by the infamous Oscar slap gate scandal. Smith let his emotions overpower him in the award ceremony in March 2022 as he caused one of the biggest controversies by slapping the host Chris Rock.

&quot;Emancipation&quot; 🎬 This movie deserves an award <a href="https://twitter.com/willsmith?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@willsmith</a> killed the role as always😭.
Actually researched and saw the photo of Peter(Gordon). Man! Slavery was an ugly sh!t. Funny enough, they ended slavery, but up till today they still consider &quot;blacks&quot; as inferior <a href="https://t.co/Dv2iRNZurW">pic.twitter.com/Dv2iRNZurW</a>

The consequences of the same have not been good, to say the least. As a punishment, a ban of ten years has been imposed on <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/will-smith/">Will Smith</a> from all Academy events. Not only that, it took numerous apologies, therapies, and introspection over almost ten months for Smith to make a comeback to the screen. The award-winning actor launched his movie Emancipation in early December. However, the road ahead might not be easy for the Aladdin star. Rumors suggest that one of the highest-paying Hollywood actors has shunned him.

<h2>Will Smith wishes to collaborate with This Hollywood legend</h2>
After returning to acting with Emancipation, Will Smith is eyeing a big break with a collaboration with Tom Cruise. He is on a mission to recover his image and there can be nothing better than a project with Cruise. However, sources suggest that the American producer has shown no interest in working with Smith. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
Tom Cruise hasn&#39;t responded to any of Will Smith&#39;s messages ever since he slapped Chris Rock during Oscars.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TomCruise?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#TomCruise</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WillSmith?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WillSmith</a>

&#8220;Will has reached out to Tom a few times. Trying to reconnect and see if they can hang out and brainstorm some projects together. A solid movie with Tom would guarantee Will&#8217;s return, or so he thinks,&#8221; the source suggested as <a href="https://radaronline.com/p/tom-cruise-avoiding-will-smith-oscars-slap/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mentioned</a> by Radar Online. 
Cruise has always been careful about the people he is friends with in the industry. The Mission Impossible actor believes that it will be too early and risky to join hands with King Richard&#8217;s star, as the Oscar slap gate is still fresh. Meanwhile, Will Smith is not the only public personality who has been banned by Tom Cruise. A few days back, it was reported that the Hollywood legend has also <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-how-prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-lost-support-from-570-million-worth-hollywood-star/">shunned Prince Harry and Meghan Markle</a> after their continuous allegations against the royal family.
