As the years in the world of cinema have passed, the evolution of programming has improved significantly. Will Smith’s film Gemini Man has been an example.

Ever since the star rose to fame, Will has become one of the most popular actors in the Hollywood industry. His many appearances on television and the big screens have put him on the list of highest-earning Black actors.

Hollywood actor Will Smith plays the character of Henry Brogan, an elite assassin who loses interest in his job and retires after a job goes wrong.

His character is then hunted by a young assassin, whose name is Junior, and has an uncanny resemblance to Henry’s younger self.

Within the first three days of release, Gemini Man earned $20.5 million. As reported by Box Office Mojo, the hit movie made $173.5 million gross worldwide from a $138 million budget.

Despite Will’s popularity, the movie didn’t make as much revenue as they had hoped compared to his other films like Bad Boys and Men In Black.

Interestingly, Will played both roles of his character. Henry and Junior’s characters are both interpreted by Will – but how did they manage to make Will look 25 years younger?

The film’s director was said to have used cutting-edge special effects, allowing him to manipulate the actor’s appearance and making him as young as his Fresh Prince days.

According to iNews, Weta Studios used de-aging effects, which have been previously used for films like lord of The Rings.

An entire digital copy of Will in his younger form as scenes captured his body movements to perfect Junior’s character.

Taking into consideration that Will Smith had to play two different characters, fans became curious to know how much money the actor was offered for his role.

Will made $12.5 million for Gemini Man, Parade reported. Starting his career two decades ago, the actor earned between $20 to $30 million per movie.

At the time of writing, the actor has a net worth of approximately $350 million.
