Will Smith became one of the biggest movie stars in the world during the 1990s, but sadly, his gritty film debut proved to be a total bomb.
Will Smith's debut movie received great reviews but proved to be a total bomb back in 1992. Smith became one of the biggest movie stars in the world during the '90s and it's almost hard to imagine a time he wasn't huge. His music career led to beloved sitcom The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, which ran between 1990 and 1996.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT While Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air marked Smith's acting debut, his first movie was actually the gritty 1992 drama Where the Day Takes You. This follows a group of runaway teenagers living on the streets of Los Angeles and has an impressive ensemble that includes Sean Astin, Lara Flynn Boyle, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan and many more.
How & When Will Smith Became Such A Huge Box Office Star Where the Day Takes You may have done little for Smith's movie career, but his fortunes would change in just a few short years. His big break out came with Michael Bay's Bad Boys, a modesty-budgeted action comedy that proved beyond a doubt the "Fresh Prince" could work as an action star. Independence Day and Men In Black followed soon after, which cemented his status as a leading man.
He has had some box-office duds - including After Earth - but Will Smith holds the box-office record for most consecutive $100 million+ hits in America. Beginning with Men In Black 2 - where he reunited with Where the Day Takes You co-star Lara Flynn Boyle - and ending with I Am Legend, every movie he starred in was a top-grosser.
