Film director Barry Sonnenfeld tainted one of Will Smith’s nasty habits that was bad enough to obliterate an entire movie set.

Kelly Ripa interviewed Sonnenfeld on Wednesday’s episode of her podcast, “Let’s Talk Off Camera.” Sonnenfeld described Smith as a “farter.”

The stench of gas, which Smith omitted, was once so bad that the entire cast and crew on the set of the 1997 film “Men in Black” were forced to leave the scene for hours, he said. spoke.

The director told Ripa that Smith leaked lipstick while filming a scene with Tommy Lee Jones in a sealed vehicle. In the movie, the vehicle transforms into a hypercar in Manhattan’s Midtown Tunnel.

“We have to get them into a device inside the car that transforms into a hypercar,” Sonnenfeld said, explaining how Smith got into the car during filming. We need to come,” he said.

“We get them up there, put them in there, turn it upside down, and we’re ready to shoot. And they’re sealed into this space,” he said.

As soon as the cameras started rolling, Smith could be heard saying, “Oh, I’m sorry,” and then immediately telling Sonnenfeld, “Get the ladder!”

The crew rushed to retrieve the ladder, not knowing what kind of emergency had occurred.

The emergency was caused by an unbearable odor.

“So what happened is that Will Smith is a fart. It’s just that some people fart,” he said.

Sonnenfeld went on to explain the stench, saying, “You don’t want to be in a really small, enclosed space with Will Smith farting.”
