The Oscar winner, 57, was photographed filming Supermax at the Western Sydney Hotel in Sydney, Australia, on Wednesday, Aug. 26. As Smith walked the outdoor hallways, he was wearing a metallic copper tracksuit, a white T-shirt and a pair of Nike Jordans.
Smith’s company, Westbrook, announced the film on Instagram in May, saying it is working with Amazon MGM Studios, Miramax and director David Gordon Green (The Exorcist: Believer, Halloween) on the project. David Weil and David J. Rosen wrote the film, and both serve as executive producers alongside Smith and Adam Fishbach.
The upcoming thriller is described as “a propulsive and twist-laden” story following two FBI agents investigating a murder in the world’s most secure prison. Smith stars as the lead character, Rex. He is joined by AnnaSophia Robb and Jaafar Jackson.
