November 12 is Disney Plus Day, and the House of Mouse dropped a massive list of upcoming movies and TV shows, from a featurette for Obi-Wan Kenobi to announcements for a TON of Marvel Studios projects to the first promotional image for Hocus Pocus 2.
One of the National Geographic series Disney announced was Welcome to Earth starring Will Smith, where the expert alien fighter travels to the ends of the earth.
There’s just one teensy tiny problem.
Disney Plus tagged @WillSmith in both tweets about the series. That is the wrong Will Smith.
Follow @WillSmith to the ends of the Earth, literally. Welcome to Earth, an Original Series from @NatGeo, is streaming December 8 only on #DisneyPlus. #WelcomeToEarthSeries #DisneyPlusDay pic.twitter.com/eanWnNNGKX

So the wrong Will Smith was basically tagged throughout Disney’s lengthy thread, and you can imagine how that went.
I am not the Will Smith you’re looking for. pic.twitter.com/MYuFz2pPa9

The filters usually work, but they’re doing heavy lifting right now. I haven’t seen tweet volume like this since Will Smith’s 3-story trailer was blocking windows in Manhattan.

“Maybe I should get free @disneyplus for life,” Smith tweeted, “because this series of tweets will haunt me for years.”
The best part of this is that I’m also tagged in every subsequent tweet. Maybe I should get free @disneyplus for life because this series of tweets will haunt me for years. https://t.co/m1L9BmSx0h
