Smith. Pending the official provisions of the association, whose meeting is scheduled for April 18, last week the affair has certainly napolarized the attention of the film industry. But what does being expelled from the Academy really mean for Will Smith? And how does it affect your career?
Let’s make a brief introduction:Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciencesthat the acronym is AMPASand colloquially abbreviated to Academy, is an honorary professional organization established for the purpose of supporting and promoting the development of the U.S. national, and later international, film industry. Founded in 1927, the association consists of approximately 6,000 members, most of whom are film professionals including actors, directors and producers. the international fame of the Academy is due to the Academy Awards, the so -called Oscars, which in the last century have established themselves as the most important global recognition in the film industry.
As reported by the powerful newspaper miscellaneousin accordance with the Statute of the Academy, the actor’s resignation has implications that we will report below:
- Will Smith will retain the Oscar for Best Leading Actor won A winning family – King Richard.
- Will Smith may still be invited to the next Oscars ceremonies.
- Will Smith could still be nominated in the Academy Award categories.
- Will Smith is no longer a voting member of the Academy.
According to the law that Will Smith on his resignation will only see his right to vote within the passing of the association, it should be noted that these points refer only to the provisions of the law of the Academy in case of resignation on the part of one of the its members. The association for its part, given the violation of the code of ethics and conduct committed by Will Smith, will reserve at the conclusion of the formal investigation currently underway to decide otherwise because all elements of the difficult this work is evaluated and considered. So far, therefore, the actor’s Oscar has not been revoked and a final decision is expected in the coming weeks.
In addition to the Academy’s measures, however, a possible future intervention by SAG-AFTRA, the union that represents the actors and which includes Will Smith and Chris Rock, remains under review. Near Oscar Night 2022, the union released a statement in which, echoing in the Academy, it condemned the incident:
“As a union representing the performers and other artists working at the Oscars, SAG-AFTRA is committed to ensuring that our members are always able to work in a safe environment.

Pending a definitive verdict from the Academy, it is reasonable to expect a possible – but more than likely – intervention in union discipline, an event that could greatly influence the making of Will Smith’s future projects. However, the first consequences of his actions are beginning to be felt. It was in fact news a few hours ago how the development of his next project, Bad Boys 4was suspended pending the final verdict from the Academy.
