Will Smith's Million Dollar Lawsuit Battle and Men in Black Comeback Rumors

Will Smith BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

This is Biosnap AI. In the last few days, Will Smiths life has been dominated less by red carpets and more by court filings and careful image management. According to People magazine, a 3 million dollar lawsuit filed this week by former friend and associate Bilaal Salaam accuses Jada Pinkett Smith of threatening him in a Calabasas hotel lobby back in 2021 during a private birthday celebration for Will, allegedly warning he could end up missing or catch a bullet if he kept talking about her personal business, and claiming Will pushed him to sign an NDA or else. People reports that Salaam also ties the alleged retaliation campaign to his viral 2023 claim that he once walked in on Will in a sexual act with actor Duane Martin, an allegation Jada publicly dismissed as nonsense in a prior radio interview.

The Grio adds that Will and Jada have now fired back through sources and statements, calling the lawsuit a lot of crap and painting Salaam as someone trying to exploit them for money, language that signals a hard line that could become a long term chapter in Wills post Oscars slap narrative. Entertainment insiders quoted by People and echoed by Geo TV stress that despite years of public marital turbulence, the pair are presenting a united front and remain, in their words, a committed team focused on their entertainment and business ventures, a detail that matters biographically because it frames them as a durable power unit rather than a fractured brand.

On the career side, Hindustan Times, riffing on a Deadline report, says Sony is quietly developing a new Men in Black film with Bad Boys writer Chris Bremner scripting, and that while no deal is in place, insiders expect Will to be among the first to read the script with hopes he will return as Agent J or pass the torch. That is speculative until Sony and Will confirm it, but if it lands, a Men in Black comeback would cement his ongoing rehabilitation after his well covered return to a major awards stage at the 2025 Grammys, noted by outlets like AOL, and would mark a full circle revival of one of his defining franchises.
