Will Smith Talked to Barack Obama About Playing Him in a Movie & Obama Had the Best Comeback

Will Smith has played a number of real people on the big screen, from boxer Muhammed Ali to philanthropist and businessman Chris Gardner. He's also a prominent supporter of Barack Obama—Will and wife Jada Pinkett Smith even hosted a fundraiser in their Los Angeles home in 2012 to benefit Obama's reelection campaign, according to The Hill. So Smith seems like the perfect candidate to play Obama in a biopic, right?

During an episode of Carpool Karaoke: The Series, Will told James Corden he’s considered it. Jump to 4:22 to see his hilarious confession, as long as you don't mind skipping some great dance moves.

While there have already been two movies based on Obama's life (Southside With You and Barry), I can’t help but think Will would be perfect to play the 44th POTUS.

What does Obama think? “He told me that he felt confident that I had the ears for the role,” Smith told Corden. HA! Flawless Obama comebacks are what America's been missing.

Will was too busy dancing in his seat to let any more details slip during the interview, so we'll just have to wait and see if this dream casting becomes a reality. My fingers are crossed!
