American actor, rapper, and film producer Will Smith is one of Hollywood’s most renowned names. So much so, that he has won multiple accolades, including an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, a BAFTA Award, and four Grammy Awards! His films have also grossed over $9.3 billion globally.
Having most recently reprised his role as one-half of the iconic American buddy cop duo, Mike Lowrey, in the fourth installment of the fan-favorite, billion-dollar Bad Boys franchise ‘Bad Boys: Ride or Die’, Smith is already all set for his next role!
Based on Daniel Suarez’s best-selling novel ‘Influx’, ‘Resistor’, a sci-fi thriller, takes place in a dystopian society wherein the government uses shady tactics to prevent technological advancement. Moreover, the film follows the discovery of a device that can reflect gravity by physicist Jon Grady and his team. However, they are thrown into prison after they refuse to suppress the truth of its discovery.
While plot, director, cast, and further details are being kept under wraps for the time being, the project from Sony Pictures will mark another collaboration in a list that includes the likes of ‘Seven Pounds’, ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ and most recently the Civil War thriller ‘Emancipation’.
