Will Smith, the creator of the Apple TV+ series 'Slow Horses,' won an Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series and humorously addressed sharing his name with actor Will Smith during his acceptance speech. He joked, 'First of all, relax. Despite my name, I come in peace,' referencing the actor's infamous slap of Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. This marked 'Slow Horses' first Emmy win of the night, among several nominations. The incident at the Oscars, where actor Will Smith slapped Chris Rock for a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith, led to a decade-long ban from the Academy Awards for the actor. The actor has since publicly apologized for his actions, expressing deep regret.
