Will Smith Admits He Contemplated Killing His Father In New Memoir!

If there ever was a book to pick up, Will Smith's highly anticipated memoir "Will" would be it! In the latest details about the memoir, Smith divulged that he once contemplated killing his father.

In an excerpt taken from Smith’s new memoir, he detailed how his father's abuse “defined who I am today.” He wrote, “My father tormented me. And he was also one of the greatest men I’ve ever known,” "He was one of the greatest blessings of my life, and also one of my greatest sources of pain."

In another excerpt Will further explains the pain his abusive father caused him and his mother while revealing that he once contemplated killing his late dad.

Detailing a specific moment from his life, Smith said, his father — U.S. Air Force veteran Willard Carrol Smith Sr. whom was sick at the time due to his cancer growing worse. While attempting his best to deal with the trauma of his childhood, Smith stated he considered killing his father in order to avenge his mother: “That when I was big enough, when I was strong enough, when I was no longer a coward, I would slay him. I paused at the top of the stairs. I could shove him down, and easily get away with it. I’m Will Smith. No one would ever believe I killed my father on purpose. I’m one of the best actors in the world. My 911 call would be Academy Award level. As the decades of pain, anger, and resentment coursed then receded, I shook my head and proceeded to wheel Daddio to the bathroom.”

Thank goodness Smith didn't go down that dark path!
