Hollywood superstar Will Smith has apparently been seen in Kuala Lumpur today (Monday, January 18), though the purpose of his visit remains a mystery. A photo of Smith greeting fans at Mid Valley Megamall has been circulating on local social media, though there’s no confirmation of when the picture was taken or by whom.
Meanwhile, actor Daniel Henney posted on his social media profile that he was arriving in Kuala Lumpur today. The 36-year-old Asian-American actor and model has made a name for himself through Korean TV dramas, and got his big Hollywood break in 2009 when he was cast as Agent Zero in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
UPDATE:
It’s now believed that Smith arrived in Malaysia last night (Sunday, January 17) to attend a series of meetings with iflix, an entertainment streaming provider based in KL. However, when contacted, an iflix spokesperson had no comment.
Several photos of Smith in the city began circulating on the Internet this afternoon. In one of the pictures, he’s seen walking with his business partner James Lassiter, iflix group CEO Mark Britt, as well as iflix chairman, Catcha Group co-founder and group CEO Patrick Grove.
Coincidentally, Smith’s former musical partner DJ Jazzy Jeff is also in Kuala Lumpur, for the official launch of Prime Touch Luxury club yesterday. Back in the late 1980s up to the mid 1990s, the rap and hip-hop duo were the Grammy-winning act known as DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.
Smith is said to be leaving Malaysia later today.
