When Academy Award-winning actor Will Smith (King Richard, Men in Black, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) dropped the video below featuring highlights from his trip to Saudi Arabia for the Red Sea Film Festival, he captioned it: “Wow! Thank You Red Sea Film Festival! You have created real Magic — An Oasis of art & creativity! What’s Next? I’m in.”
He neglected to mention bumping into fellow American Hollywood movie star Johnny Depp (Pirates of the Caribbean, Edward Scissorhands, What’s Eating Gilbert Grape) on the red carpet at the film festival. As seen at about the half-way mark of the video, the two hugged and patted each other on the back.
