Will Smith lost his ever-loving MIND over this character in “Suicide Squad”
It’s easy to imagine getting starstruck by a huge celebrity like Will Smith. I don’t care who you are or where you’re from, if you ran into the Men In Black star, your childhood self would definitely geek out a little bit. I know I would. That brings up the question — who is cool enough that Will Smith himself gets starstruck?

Smith revealed the answer in a funny anecdote on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon while promoting Suicide Squad. Smith told Fallon that even though he’s been in a ton of movies and feels like he’s seen it all, he still freaked out when Ben Affleck, in costume as Batman, came to set in the Batmobile.
“I was like six years old! I was like, Ben, can you sign this? Can you sign this for me?” Smith exclaimed after doing some hilarious impressions of himself yelling with excitement when he first saw the comic book hero portrayed in person.

Besides the fact that Smith is hysterical and charming anyway, this interaction is extra hilarious to imagine because in Suicide Squad, Smith plays the DC character Deadshot, a cool and collected assassin — who we now know nerded out when he saw Batman on set. We can only hope the cameras were rolling for that moment, because that would be some incredible behind-the-scenes footage.
