Even though Daily Loud shared no information about what caused the "humiliating" spit, people left comments speculating on what could have caused the act.

Most people assumed that the spitting was part of the scene that Will had to perform. According to Insider, the spit was an impromptu spit that shocked Will when it happened.

Emancipation is based on slavery, and the Academy Award-winning actor's dehumanising treatment was due to his co-star's desire for realism.

Netizens say Will Smith deserved the spit after Chris Rock's Oscars slap

Peeps left the following comments:

@WizFiasCole said:

"Is this some sort of humiliation ritual for that Oscars thing?"

@Coujo17 replied:

"Unfortunately, it’s what he gets, could have been way worse."

@DerikNovvaj23ii commented:

"Maybe I just don’t know what I’m talking about, but if being part of a movie messes with your spirit, mind, heart, and/or body, then I recommend not being a part of it at all. Especially when you have millions in the bank as it is."

@ManaakiJr wrote:

"I can't blame the co-star for his action because of the incident with Chris Rock at the Oscars. Others actually considered him a mentor. He even concluded just recently that, some people may not watch his movies (upcoming ones) anymore and that is so true."

@gabehoustonnn reacted:

"The man slapped Chris Rock though."

@therainvvs also said:

"The more I hear from Will Smith the less I wanna hear from Will Smith "
