Jaden Smith encounters a pack of super angry monkeys in this new After Earth clip . Take a look: After Earth Clip – Monkeys Smith stars with his dad Will (you may have heard of him), as father-son exploration duo Kitai and Rage. The film takes place after humans have abandoned Earth for a thousand years, following a series of cataclysmic events. While on a voyage, Kitai and Rage crash land on the now-hostile planet, and it is up to Kitai to save them. Isabelle Fuhrman, Sophie Okonedo, and Zoe Kravitz also star. M. Night Shyamalan directs the film, which will premiere May 31.
He may never be mistaken for Mel Gibson in Braveheart , but Jaden Smith apparently went to his famous parents recently and demanded something unusual: FREEEEEDOM! Jaden turns 15 in July and his dad told The Sun this week what his only son has asked for as a present. “He says, ‘Dad, I want to be emancipated,” Will Smith said . “I know if we do this, he can be an emancipated minor, because he really wants to have his own place. “That’s the backlash. On the other side, if kids just want to have command of their lives, I understand.” Jaden, meanwhile, may be dating Kylie Jenner and is definitely close friends with Justin Bieber . He stars this summer opposite his father in a new movie and you can check out the After Earth trailer now.
You got to watch these Smith kids . Willow likes to cut her hair short and dye it all types of ghetto colors and Jaden dates Kylie Jenner. Need we say more. Will Smith’s Son Wants to Move Out According to Radar Online Jaden Smith doesn’t even have his driver’s license, but he is ready to buy his own home and get emancipated from his famous parents. In a new interview with The Sun, Will Smith reveals that his 14-year-old son and After Earth costar recently told him that he wants legal freedom and independence from him and Jada Pinkett so he can buy his own house and live alone – and RadarOnline.com has the details. Will explains that Jaden, who will be celebrating his 15th birthday in July and is close pals with 19-year-old Justin Bieber, asked for a very unique gift. “He says, ‘Dad, I want to be emancipated.’ I know if we do this, he can be an emancipated minor, because he really wants to have his own place, like ‘Ooh,’” Will explained. “That’s the backlash. On the other side, if kids just want to have command of their lives, I understand.” Will, who has two other children, Willow, 12, and Trey, 19, reveals he has a laid back approach to parenting and doesn’t believe in reprimanding his kids. “We generally don’t believe in punishment,” he says. “From the time Jaden was five or six, we would sit him down, and all he has to do is be able to explain why what he did was the right thing for his life. I think it’s a much more difficult question to ask someone —’Why was that right?’ — than to try to show them why it was wrong. “Nobody wants to be wrong, all parts of yourself fight like crazy to not be wrong. So I’ll say to Jaden, ‘Why was that the right thing to do for your life?’ and if he can explain why kicking his sister in the chest was the right thing to do, we can see to it that he understands that it wasn’t so smart.” Do you think Jaden is too young to be on his own?
Will Smith turned lots of heads in London last week when he appeared at a school assembly and rapped the theme to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air … seriously. The rapper / movie star visited St. Martin-in-the-Fields High School; he was invited by Streatham Member of Parliament Chuka Umunna. Umunna joined him on the Fresh Prince rap. Check it out: Will Smith, Chuka Umunna Sing Fresh Prince of Bel Air Theme Smith was in the UK to watch his Jaden open for Justin Bieber’s tour … Will was not there when JB tried to beat the f–k out of a photographer .

If, like me you’re horribly old and ready to be sent by the farmer to the local dog food factory, you might remember a 1981 science fiction book called ‘ After Man: A Zoology of The Future ,’ by Dougal Dixon. Now sadly out of print (I still have a battered copy with a half-torn cover, because bragging rights), it featured fantastic naturalist illustrations of creatures extrapolated, evolutionarily, from modern fauna 50 million years after humanity had gone extinct. Wolf-like beasts descended from rats and ungulates descended from rabbits are the least weird creatures you’ll see, and it’s a crime no one has ever seen fit to make a half-decent movie based on concepts from the book. We’ll have to wait much longer for that, but based on the new international trailer, we can at least see something of the book’s influence on M. Knight Shyamalan’s next film, After Earth . The Will Smith and Jaden Smith-starring sci fi movie concerns the adventures of “legendary general” Cypher Raige* (Will) who, along with his young son Kitai (Jaden) crash land on planet Earth a thousand years after humanity abandoned it and moved out into the stars. Critically injured in the crash, the General is in desperate need of help; now Kitai must venture out alone into a completely re-forested home-world teeming with creatures, so we’re told in the trailer, that have all evolved to kill human beings. The glimpse of what looks like slightly evolved baboons is promising, and I’m actually shocked to admit this thing looks good. Shyamalan has not earned any benefit of the doubt, however, and I am confident that by film’s end we’ll be treated to some kind of clunky twist. Maybe it’ll turn out that they’re on the Planet of the Apes and that Jaden is actually Cypher’s father. Here’s the trailer.
