According to The Hollywood Reporter, Smith received $40 million for his Oscar-nominated picture King Richard. He portrayed the father of tennis players Venus and Serena Williams. While he made a considerable profit, the actor/producer is said to have paid out a sizable sum to castmates to assist those who were “financially impacted by the lost theatrical returns” and what they had previously gotten from Warner Media. According to the article, Smith also gave his King Richard co-stars iPhone 12 Pro Max and Polaroid camera as “treats.”
