Director Barry Sonnenfeld recently shared a hilarious anecdote from the 1997 sci-fi film ‘Men In Black’ shoot and revealed that actor Will Smith's fart once forced the entire cast and crew to abandon the set for 3 whole hours.

Sonnenfeld made the shocking revelation during the latest episode of Kelly Ripa's podcast, "Let's Talk Off Camera," while promoting his new book, "Best Possible Place, Worst Possible Time."

“We were getting ready to shoot Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. They have to be put in this device, which is [a car] that transforms into a hypercar. We get them up there and we put them in the thing and we turn it upside down and we're ready to shoot,” Barry Sonnenfeld said.

“They're hermetically sealed in this space, and there are locks to prevent it from opening and falling. I say 'Roll camera, and I hear Will Smith go, 'Oh, Jesus. So sorry. Tommy, so sorry. Baz, get the ladder! And you hear Tommy saying, ‘That’s fine, Will. No worries, Will. Don’t worry, Will.’

He said he ran the ladder over to the device. Jones raced down the stairs to escape the stench. The smell was so overpowering that the cast and crew “evacuated” the stage for three hours.

“What happened was, Will Smith is a farter. It’s just some people are, and you really don’t want to be inside a very small hermetically sealed space with a Will Smith fart. You don’t even want to be sitting next to him at the Disney ranch,” Sonnenfeld added.

He said, “He’s a lovely guy, just he farts. Some do, some don’t.”
