Will Smith discusses suicide in new YouTube series trailer
Within the clip posted to his YouTube account Friday for the six-part unscripted sequence, “Will Smith: The Greatest Form of My Life,” the Hollywood star is seen at a desk surrounded by members of the family, together with his kids, Trey, Jaden and Willow.
“That was the one time in my life that I ever thought of suicide,” Smith mentioned, who’s seen later within the trailer wiping tears from his eyes. He doesn’t reveal any additional particulars about that consideration within the trailer.
The YouTube Originals docuseries follows the actor as he makes an attempt to lose 20 kilos (9 kilograms) in 20 weeks.
Within the trailer, Smith reveals that by means of his health journey, he realized he wanted to deal with his psychological well being — and to share his reality with the world.
“I am about to point out the world how little I find out about myself,” Smith mentioned.
“What you’ve got come to know as Will Smith, the alien-annihilating MC, bigger-than-life film star, is essentially a building, a fastidiously crafted and honed character designed to guard myself to cover myself from the world — to cover the coward,” he mentioned.
The primary episode is about to launch on YouTube on November 8.
