It looks as if 2015 will be Will Smith‘s big comeback year, considering he has the upcoming Focus film to look forward in February and now another movie on the horizon with Concussion.
His role in Concussion is that of Dr. Bennet Omalu, a neuropathologist who discovers football-related brain traumas in NFL players. Throughout the movie, he fights hard to bring mainstream attention to these debilitating head injuries in hopes to change things.
The Peter Landesman-directed film is based on the GQ article “Game Brain” by Heanne Marie Laskas and will also star the likes of Alec Baldwin, Luke Wilson, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw.
