Focus lead actor Will Smith was the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air for six seasons before becoming Mr. Box Office. Despite questionable decision making such as role selections, Smith always over delivers and never disappoints. Don’t fault a man for taking chances.
Most fans recall Dwayne Johnson’s WWE days as the Rock. Thousands have rented his Pay-Per-View World Wrestling Entertainment Championships. Nowadays, Johnson need not answer the question “if you smell… what the Rock is cooking?” In Hollywood and around the world, he is known as a premiere movie star.
What do the Rock and the Fresh Prince have in common? They started on a small scale and finished second to nobody. Also, it helps that these highly demanded actors simultaneously improved their skills as well as their physiques.
Watching Will and Dwayne perform onscreen is akin to seeing an athlete in action. It’s like spectating a NBA slam-dunk contest starring Blake Griffin and LeBron James inside a packed movie theater. As a professional wrestler Johnson can compete toe-to-toe with the best NFL Linebackers and Defensive Ends.
If you haven’t seen Gridiron Gang or the Game Plan, you don’t know what you’re missing out on.
Doesn’t Matt Kemp resemble Will Smith?
Have you seen Hancock, Hitch, or Seven Pounds?
Plus, Smith & Johnson are the richest actors. Sources estimate Dwayne is valued at $150 million. And Will’s net worth exceeds $250 million. Even Jay-Z would say they are “getting money like athletes.”
Johnson can learn a lot from Smith, who owns a stake in the Philadelphia 76ers. Will and Dwayne don’t ever have to worry. No matter what happens they are guaranteed money because of their legacies.
I consider Johnson to be one of the best movie stars right now. Moreover, Smith is one of the greatest actors I have ever seen across eras. Smith deserved Oscars for Independence Day, the Legend of Bagger Vance, Ali, Pursuit of Happyness, and I am Legend.
Dwayne Johnson and Will Smith first made their names outside of acting. The Rock wrestled and the Fresh Prince originally from Philadelphia emceed. The takeaway is to do your best and keep getting better.
