Inventing Anna actress Laverne Cox surprised the internet following her SAG Awards 2022 red carpet interview. Among the many celebrities she spoke to, her conversation with Will and Jada Pinkett Smith left the internet shocked. Cox spoke about the couple’s marriage in an interview segment, catching the attention of many.

After discussing Will’s role as father of tennis legends Serena and Venus Williams, Cox took a jab at Will and Jada’s marriage. Cox said:
“We cant wait for more ‘Red Table Talk’ and more entanglements.”
