Will & Jaden Smith to Co-Star in Film

Directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

While Willow Smith is busy whipping her hair back and forth, her dad, Will Smith, and her brother, Jaden have teamed up for an upcoming sci-fi flick directed by M. Night Shyamalan. The film, originally titled 1000 A.E., will be about a boy 1,000 years in the future who must navigate an abandoned Earth to save himself and his estranged father. “The chance to make a scary, science-fiction film starring Jaden and Will is my dream project,” Shyamalan said. Jaden’s breakout role was last year’s remake of The Karate Kid, which grossed $350 million worldwide. Shyamalan could use a hit: His most recent movie, The Last Airbender, made $300 million worldwide but was a flop with critics.
