When Prime Video posted a video from their official Instagram with the caption, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith, a series from the minds of @childishgambino and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, coming to your screens in 2022”, the upcoming show has been in talks ever since.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge has bid farewell from the main lead, one month after Donald Glover announced him as the co-creator. This iconic collab was very much praised by cinema enthusiasts. But this dream was shattered very soon.
Donald Glover is still glued to the post of main lead and creator. Mr. and Mrs. Smith’s movie was the one that gave the world Brangelina, so now the expectations are really high from the series as well. Recently there have been major announcements regarding the same, let’s directly move on to them.
Why Mr and Mrs Smith Is A Big Project?
The names associated with this project make Mr and Mrs Smith so big. Donald Glover is a renowned name in the Hollywood industry. He has achieved success in every field he has entered, whether it’s about making music such as Childish Gambino, or directing films.
The other reason to look out for this series is because of the film it is linked from. MR and MRS Smith was a major hit back in its time. The power-packed duo of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were very much liked by the audience.
