Jerry Seinfeld's request for Chris Rock to parody the infamous Will Smith Oscars slap in his directorial debut 'Unfrosted,' which recently premiered on Netflix, was declined by Rock, who felt too 'shook' from the recent event. Seinfeld revealed in a podcast that he had envisioned Rock emceeing the fictional Bowl & Spoon Awards in the film, which was shot shortly after the March 2022 Oscars incident. Despite Seinfeld's hopes, Rock was not up to perform the parody, citing his discomfort from the slap and was not up to perform a scene where he punches someone.
