"Focus" star Will Smith put on a romantic display for onlookers in New York recently. The actor who was in the midst of shooting for his latest film put on an amorous display with co-star Naomie Harris. The two were seen sharing a passionate kiss at Central Park.
Harris was pictured with what seemed like a prosthetic baby bump, Daily Mail reported. She was attired in a striped dress which stopped just above her knee. Her ensemble was coordinated with a dark blue overcoat.
The pair were seen smiling as they walked hand in hand minutes before they were spotted kissing, the British publication reported. The "Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air" star sported a deep red collared shirt with a grey zip-up pullover. His outfit was completed with grey and white Nike sneakers.
The duo is reported to be filming for the movie "Collateral Beauty." According to unofficial media reports Smith plays the character of an advertising executive, Howard Inlet. His character goes through an immense personal tragedy.
In a bid to free Inlet from depression that has got a hold of him, his colleagues devise a plan to help him move on. However, the results of their plan while being fairly successful, turn out to be the greatest surprise.
The film which is to be released in December this year boasts a star-studded cast. Names include Kate Winslet, Edward Norton, Helen Mirren, Micheal Pena, and Keira Knightley. According to the publication, Jacob Latimore together with Mirren and Knightley were also spotted in New York. The trio were pictured atop a bridge at Central Park.
