Los Angeles Sep 4 (IANS) Singer-actor Will Smith says that it is rare for a "black dude" to play a "racist" on the big screen and found it "really bizarre" to essay the character in the upcoming movie "Bright".
"Bright" takes place in a world where human lives alongside fairytale creatures such as orcs and elves and rather than showing racism between humans the movie explores the tensions between people and creatures.
"As a black dude you just don t get a lot of movies where you re a racist. It s rugged and powerful and really bizarre for me to be on the other side of that " Smith told Empire magazine reports femalefirst.co.uk.
He wasn t the only star who struggled with his role as his co-star Noomi Rapace couldn t get to grips with wearing contact lenses and a false set of teeth when she first took on her role although she soon adapted.
She explained: "I was fighting against the contact lenses and teeth at the beginning. But it s amazing how quickly you adapt."
