Seven Pounds Trailer Starring Will Smith and Rosario Dawson

The trailer for Will Smith’s next movie has leaked online, a project that finds him reteaming with Gabriele Muccino, the director of The Pursuit of Happyness. The plot for Seven Pounds seems kind of mysterious, stating only that Smith plays a guilt-ridden IRS agent who sets out to help seven strangers, and ends up falling in love with a woman who has a heart condition. If you ask me, it looks like the cheesiest Oscar-bait I’ve seen so far this season, but then again, I thought the same thing about The Pursuit of Happyness and a lot of people really dug that flick.

Rosario Dawson and Woody Harrelson co-star. Writer Grant Nieporte’s only previous credits include 8 Simple Rules… for Dating My Teenage Daughter and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I don’t want to hold that against him, but… yeah. Check out the trailer below and see what you think. Seven Pounds hits theatres on Christmas Day.

  1. It seems the Fresh Prince is doing some weird character choice here (instead of sticking to playing himself as always).

    I don’t bite on Oscar bait however Pursuit of Happiness wasn’t so bad (although I’d never spend a dime on it.
