Jerry Seinfeld claims Chris declined to

Chris Rock got the last laugh when he turned his infamous clash with Will Smith on the 2022 Oscars into the large joke of the night in the course of the “Selective Outrage” special.

But the comic is not the just one who hoped to use Rock and the controversial encounter as a funny moment. Likewise Jerry Seinfeld.

The Emmy Award-winning comedy actor revealed in a recent interview that his recent film “Unfrosted” was originally written with the “Saturday Night Live” alum in mind. The Netflix film centers around Kellogg and Post’s war to revolutionize breakfast by creating Pop-Tarts.

“The other thing I wanted to do, and I almost did, was that Chris Rock was going to be the emcee of the Bowl & Spoon Awards — and we were shooting that night after Will Smith hit,” Seinfeld said. “I wanted someone to get on stage and Chris knock them down when they got there.”

In the film, Cedric The Entertainer plays award show host Stu Smiley. Unlike Seinfeld’s original vision, he doesn’t meet anyone. The “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” creator said that Rock turned down the acting gig because he “wasn’t right for the show” and that he “was a little shaken by this event,” which occurred shortly before the scene was scheduled to be filmed.

The humorist was punched by Smith on stage while presenting the award for best documentary. Seconds before the movie star punched his peer, Chris made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s baldness. The Oscar winner returned to his seat, where he angrily shouted, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth!”

“That’s what the scene was supposed to look like, but Cedric saved the day. I love Cedric,” Seinfeld explained. When podcast co-host Dana Carvey suggested there’s still a “residual darkness” for the time being, the “Unfrosted” director said that is what draws people in. “I do not know if it will work. It was an idea,” he added.

“William Smith was punished by the Academy and the general public, and Chris Rock made a lot of cash from what happened to him. It’s time to let it go,” we read post in response to the reveal of “Unfrosted”.

Other person he stated it was an “inappropriate request.” Third comment read: “So first they were terrified and traumatized, but then they wanted to mock it in a pop tart movie… Be serious!”

While several others called Seinfeld a “hack” because they thought the parody was a good idea to begin with.

The creator of “Everybody Hates Chris” only addressed the general public debate in his comedy special. And although Smith claims he contacted Chris to apologize, there continues to be no agreement between them.

Tony Rock, Chris’ younger brother, worked with Smith for 4 years on “All of Us” in the early 2000s. He said he and the Hollywood heavy hitter were friends until the slap.

“I still feel like he owes me five minutes of conversation. I’m not saying it’s a struggle. I’m not saying it’s aggressive shit. “I feel like man to man, considering who we were to each other, you owe me a five-minute conversation, you hit my brother on national television, brother,” Tony said when he recently appeared on “My expert opinion

Smith is currently preparing for the fourth installment of the “Bad Boys” series with Martin Lawrence.

The film is scheduled for release on June 7, but reports speculate that fans have seen little or no of him as he allegedly limits his interviews to avoid talking about his affairs along with his estranged wife and the Oscars blowout.
