"He could have killed him. That's pure out-of-control rage and violence. They've heard a million jokes about them in the last three decades. They are not freshman in the world of Hollywood and comedy. He lost his mind," Apatow had tweeted about the Will Smith and Chris Rock incident at the Oscars 2022.
