The highly anticipated fifth installment of the iconic sci-fi series «Matrix» has already descended into chaos — and filming has barely begun. Actor Will Smith, who was shockingly cast as Neo in this new chapter, has been spectacularly fired on his very first day on set. According to an insider at Warner Bros., Smith unleashed a slap-happy rampage, echoing his infamous Oscars moment, leaving the production team scrambling and fans in hysterics. Keanu Reeves, who portrayed Neo in all previous films, has been brought back to save the franchise from further embarrassment. 🎬👀
Will Smith Gets Booted from «Matrix 5» After Epic Slapathon: Keanu Reeves Saves the Day!
In a move that seemed bold yet baffling, Warner Bros. initially announced that 56-year-old Will Smith would be replacing Keanu Reeves in the lead role. Fans were already divided, but the first day of filming took things to a whole new level of absurdity. Insiders report that Smith arrived looking emotional, sobbing for no apparent reason. When director Drew Goddard tried to console him, Smith retaliated with a dramatic slap that could rival any slow-motion Matrix fight scene. The chaos didn’t stop there: Smith allegedly went full slap-machine mode, targeting crew members left and right. 🥴👋
One witness described the scene as «a surreal mix of action, drama, and pure lunacy». After Smith slapped the sound engineer, the coffee guy, and even a poor assistant carrying props, the production was shut down. «We thought this was a promo stunt or maybe performance art», said an anonymous crew member. «But no, this man was just out of control». Warner Bros. executives wasted no time in kicking Smith off the set and calling Keanu Reeves, who graciously agreed to reprise his role as Neo. It seems Reeves, with his Zen-like demeanor, is the only one who can navigate the Matrix — and avoid a slap. 😂
From Neo to Chaos: Will Smith’s Oscar PTSD Strikes Again! 😱😂
Experts speculate that Smith’s behavior could stem from lingering trauma related to his infamous Oscars slap of Chris Rock in 2022. «It’s like his Vietnam syndrome», joked one insider. «Every time he hears someone say ‘cut’, he gets triggered». Mental health advocates were quick to criticize these comments, while others couldn’t resist trolling the actor. Social media has already exploded with memes of Smith as a «slapbender», with captions like «When Neo glitches IRL». 📱💀
Keanu Reeves, who has become something of a Hollywood saint, reassured fans that the Matrix universe is in safe hands. «I’ll do whatever it takes to honor this series and its fans», Reeves said in a statement, subtly shading Smith. Warner Bros. has also announced plans for a new mental health initiative on film sets, though insiders admit the primary goal is just to keep Smith far, far away. 🤦♂️👨⚕️
