"I was wrong," Will Smith slapped and apologized

 American actor Will Smith has apologized for slapping comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars.

According to the news agency Reuters, Will Smith's apology was sought after the statement of the Film Academy which indicated the possibility of action against the actor.

According to the report, an important function of the film industry was affected after one actor slapped another.

Will Smith posted on Instagram calling his behavior unacceptable and unforgivable.

He wrote, 'Chris! I would like to apologize to you in public, I crossed the line, I was wrong. '

The unfortunate incident happened during the Oscars ceremony on Monday when the comedian mentioned Will Smith's wife in a funny way on stage.

Shortly after the incident, however, the Best Actor award went to Will Smith for his role as the father of tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams in the film King Richard.

At the ceremony, Jessica Chastain won the Oscar for Best Actress for her role as an American television presenter in The Eyes of Tammy Faye.
