Academy will decide THIS WEEK how Will Smith will be disciplined for slapping Chris Rock
Academy President David Rubin moved up a meeting first scheduled for April 18. He said the board no longer needs to give Smith time to respond after the actor voluntarily resigned last week. Smith infamously slapped Rock on air after the comic joked about his wife's hair.
