ACADEMY MOVES UP DATE FOR MEETING ON WILL SMITH’S SANCTIONS

The Academy’s board of governors have rescheduled the meeting to discuss disciplinary actions against Will Smith over his infamous Oscar’s slap.

Reports say the meeting which was originally slated for April 18 will now hold tomorrow, April 8 as confirmed by an exclusive letter released days after the actor resigned from the Academy.

Recall that the actor in a swift but anticipated move announced his resignation from the Academy with a heartfelt apology where he described his action as ‘Painful and Inexcusable’.

Smith’s actions has since sparked notable consequences especially among production companies and according to multiple reports, Sony, Apple TV and Netflix had paused productions associated with the actor.
