What Happened to Mr. & Mrs. Smith?

Pop quiz hot shot: What’s the best action movie of the past 20 or 30 years that never received a cinematic sequel? Nope, it’s not Speed. Is it Wanted? Nobody? The Accountant? How about Knight and Day or American Made? While the latter comes from director Doug Liman, we’d argue that the correct answer is Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Liman’s eminently watchable assassin thriller that continues to shine thanks to the explosive chemistry between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, two luminous movie stars who met and fell in love during production. Although the movie earned decent reviews and grossed nearly half a billion dollars worldwide, Mr. & Mrs. Smith never received an official sequel or cinematic spinoff and is often remembered for the juicy tabloid gossip surrounding its two superstars.
Yet, in 2024, a small-screen adaptation of Liman’s hit action flick has been produced by Amazon Prime Video, introducing a whole new generation of viewers to the romantic spy drama. As such, it’s only fitting to take a look back at the production history of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. After all, the script began as a student project and was later accused of plagiarism, several different endings were filmed, a super steamy sex scene was removed to avoid an R-rating, and perhaps most fascinating, Pitt and Jolie nearly did not star in the movie together. Have we got your attention? Darn right, it’s time to find out What The F*ck Happened to Mr. & Mrs. Smith!

[@Omar-wq9dz]

I think the Brangelina relationship is what people remember more than the actual film

[@Kthomasritchie]

An average at best movie.

[@808v1]

unfortunate, but true.

[@ABoyandHisDog-pd3lb]

I liked the movie

[@cadillacdeville5828]

I saw this in the theater and very much enjoy it till this day. Upon first watching, INSTINCTIVELY felt that their chemistry was incredibly undeniable.

[@ailo4x4]

For the love of god, it's 'Bo-go-tAH", not "Bo-goatuh" (rolls eyes), but GREAT FILM!

[@VikingTeddy]

I have never heard it pronounced like that. Like, it takes effort to screw up *that* bad. How does one go their whole life without hearing the pronunciation? And you have to actively avoid reading how it is written. Honestly quite impressive.

[@wolfwiles]

How can you do this much research for a video and then get a simple pronunciation of a global city that wrong?

[@jatredies]

@@wolfwiles Exactly. The locations segment was abnormally long for JoBlo and they still screwed it up.

[@lilshabaz1862]

He even plays footage of the word Bogotá, with the accent on the A! I think it was a purposeful mistake to get people to comment. Comments are good for the algorithm. JoBlo vidoes are rife with mistakes like that.

[@camaronshoultz6137]

😂yes! Sounds like they went to Trump for their pronunciations 😂

[@Souredsoup]

12:36 Hate to be the 'achtually' guy here, but actually in the Amazon show the two characters know from the start they work for the agency and are both new spy / assassin agents who are teamed up with each other. They are not really married, but have to find a way to believably fake it as part of their cover.

[@trinaq]

Almost two decades later, and this movie is mostly remembered for Brad ending his marriage with Jennifer Aniston to be with Angelina.

[@lgannawa]

Also why I don’t watch this movie.

[@lgannawa]

But I LOVED it when it came out.

[@DavidWraith]

12:45 They absolutely know they both work for the same agency. Did the writer of this actually watch the show?

[@PodyTheCirate]

Came to the comments for this! LOL the show was amazing, they clearly didn’t watch it

[@wstine79]

Brad and Angelina's relationship only adds to the action and charming premise. Vince Vaughan was hilarious in the movie.

[@Locadel2003]

Vince Vaugh was hilarious

[@jamesmorant1406]

Good action comedy Brad and Angelina had great chemistry

[@SpazticMuffin]

Correction: In the tv series adaptation, they know they work for the same agency... being "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is part of their cover!

[@keithwald5349]

Let's work on the pronunciation of "Bogotá."

[@wagggle]

yes

[@lostlakepictures7378]

Let’s work on the pronunciation of a lot of words in these JoBlo videos.

[@JohnnyNiteTrain]

Doug Liman is a badass director. I wish this Edge of Tomorrow sequel would finally get moving. That movie is so sick!! RIP Bill Paxton

[@lilshabaz1862]

Wait. You're telling me the 54 skyscraper genuinely exists and was NOT built for the movie?!?

[@High_Key]

This move has always been a banger. I had it on my iPod Video back in the day and watched it sooo many times

[@seangerant653]

great video !!......love this movie !!!!.....wish they would put the uncut ver on blu-ray !!!!!!

[@anthonyd.1428]

The correct answer is Snatch! That movie rocks even to this day.

[@Dr_1212]

Good movie 👍

[@ShootingStar1313]

In most movies I can't imagine anyone else being cast in the main roles. Here, I can't help BUT imagine all kinds of great actors pairing up to be Mr. And Mrs. Smith. 🔀

[@CTEagleCeltic]

The TV was better than decent… but I like D Glover in everything he’s in.

[@RainBird88x]

I like the Friends reference when pronouncing Bogotá.

[@CL-uc1kv]

Nothing happened - it’s been living in top 5 favourite films since forever

[@tec5x5]

Love this film I seen both versions of it and own a theatrical poster of Ms Smith they did one sheets with both and one sheets where there separated

[@StellaAdler_]

U call that a sequel? A sexy sequel? The one on Amazon? Oh my God 😂😂😂😂😂

[@unrenderedmedia]

12:51 in the new show starring Donald Glover… they DO both know that each other are assassins… It’s a different take on the concept.

[@Xayjohns]

It's been a long time since I've watched it, but I honestly didn't see why it was a big deal. It was alright I guess.

[@syncategorematically]

One of the spy couple movie that i still love to rewatch and it still good like the first time i watch it. Been wandering why it got no sequel. Now i know. Sad that we cant never get it

[@danielduncan6806]

Be careful what you wish for. Be happy with what you have, enjoy it, and the memories of it. Do not be so quick to add to them with sequels, or change them with remakes. This blind "I've got to have more!" attitude is how we got all the garbage sequels we have today. Be a VIEWER of movies, do not CONSUME them. When it gets to the point you are merely consuming movies, you've got a malfunction.

[@rjspires]

I re-watched this a year or two ago and ending is what throws you. It just stops without concluding anything, just it see them back at the marriage counsellor. Still a good watch up to that point.

[@DisillusionedMillennial]

Another movie you guys should make a video on is FUN WITH DICK AND JANE! that movie was crazy funny and way under rated 🤣🤣🤣

[@asgads]

Point break and animatrix would have needed at the time

[@DELMQR1]

I remember watching this for the first time on the PSP

[@pmonterolarrain]

"Bogata"

[@Bluboy30]

I enjoyed this film mostly for its action scenes. Personally, I think it would've been better if there's a central villain and the Smiths somehow saves the world from said villain.

[@thomascrowley9122]

I this in theaters. Can't believe that was almost 20 years sgo.

[@christophergolias3610]

This movie is incredible until they stop trying to kill each other. After they team up it just falls apart.

[@Jeffk750]

Nice Tears for Fears reference!

[@RoeVenturesLLC]

Movie was entertaining.

[@GlenviewNo1]

Good researched video but the pronunciation of Bogotah is weird as noted by others and also you stated it was Angelina's first mark. Well you'd know from a scene later on in the movie she has more kills then Brad.

[@gustavohernandeza.890]

FUN FACT: Doug Liman would end up filming parts of American Made (starring one Tom Cruise, you might have heard of him) in actual Columbia (not Bogota but Medellin and Santa Marta)

[@TheRighttoArmBears2022]

Some movies don't need a sequel and lots of times a sequel cheapens the movie

[@nickjasperse9903]

Best biopic ever made

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

Scott Bakula and Maria Bello starred in the 1996 tv series version of Mr. & Mrs. Smith which you mentioned in this video! 🧑‍✈👩‍✈📺📼

[@alteregobro4826]

since the new garfield movie's coming out next month can you do what happened to the 2004 garfield movie?

[@dojee8993]

aah yes, my favourite Simpsons parody

[@JC_Chappy]

Have a really good friend from college that liked this movie as much as me and we'd watch about once a month. Turns out we were watching for different reasons. I was watching for Angelina (so fuggin hot) and... Well... He was watching for Brad. I had no idea at the time, but his white Firebird convertible and his penchant for full volume Beyonce shoulda clued me in lol. We still laugh about it.

[@ZoeMuller80]

the real question is what happened to good youtube titles and why almost everyone jumped clickbait bandwagon

[@BluJae93]

Dang will smith could’ve been in some great movies

[@filippos13]

The correct answer was Dredd! Mr and Mrs Smith was ok, but it needed to be R rated.

[@dicekolev5360]

Most of movies should be R rated anyway because life fucks you up every day man, without protection :D

[@Cyril29a]

7:34 What does Pitt say? It sounds like "Oh dear god" which doesn't really make sense or come across as funny to me. Can someone please clarify?

[@ukmediawarrior]

He says it because he wasn't trying to shoot his gun, but it goes off as he falls through the fence and nearly hits Angelina as she is driving toward him in the car which makes her think he is seriously out to kill her when he isn't.

[@Cyril29a]

@@ukmediawarrior Thank you, that makes sense.

[@cristiandiazbasualto]

dude, dude, you see a mark on top of the A in Bogotá?, that´s where you stress your voice, so it´s bogoTA, not boGOta like you said.

[@tankosaurus]

What’s the best action movie of the past 20 or 30 years that never received a cinematic sequel (other movies I'd like to mention - sorry to be that guy, I can't help myself)? True Lies, Atomic Blonde, Bullet Train, Leon/the Professional, Demolition Man, Dredd, Alita Battle Angel, Con Air, the Last Boy Scout (just over the 30 year mark...), the Long Kiss Goodnight, Flash Point, Hot Fuzz (does Hot Fuzz count, it's also quite a lot of Comedy...), Daylight and Cliffhanger, Behind Enemy Lines, Enemy of the State, hmmm, I can't seem to think of any from the 2000's... there must have been something... ooo Jet li, duh... Romeo Must Die, Kiss of the Dragon, Unleashed... Mostly True Lies, despite many others being my favourites and no doubt many other peoples favourites... True Lies, I think, is objectively one of the best Action movies ever made. There are probably a lot of other that only I really like, like the Last Man Standing, the Man from U.N.C.L.E., Face/Off, Shoot 'em Up... And many I can't think of right now.

[@Blitzo8390]

We could have had more Keith David?! Boo!! What a waste of

[@JeditheScribe]

For me, "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" was the movie that I got confused with "Fun with Dick and Jane." They just felt like very similar movies to me as a kid.

[@takaotsu3592]

What happened? They got divorced. 😂😂

[@terryf6696]

But it's a direct copy of the 1940s movie though!! The plot is different but the premise is identical, a boring suburban couple who are both spies unbeknownst to each other. How can anyone claim the idea after that since it had existed for 40 to 50 years before this was made

[@lambknot]

Brad looks better with longer hair.

[@ukmediawarrior]

The 2024 Mr & Mrs Smith tv show is terrible, it has hardly anything to do with the way the movie portrays the two characters and for the most part is boring. But hey, if JoBlo like it then power to them I guess, lol.

[@anytimeanywhere7859]

I hated the new TV series but liked this movie.

[@jackbenimblejack1]

Booo goo ta

[@michellecrocker2485]

Sexy , fun and Angelina is badass

[@kevinrios6293]

the unrated version of the film actually has the originally intended Sex scene

[@stevegovea1]

What happened? They got a divorce...😅

[@spaceo8568]

It's a grossly overrated movie that wouldn't have gotten the attention it got if it weren't for the two stars having an affair while filming.

[@DeviantmindOG]

What happened? They got married and later did an ugly divorce lol

[@lisamillar1837]

One of only 2 movies that I ever walked out of. You could tell that there was way more going on than what was onscreen.

[@przemysawpawlinski5536]

They had to do a race swap.

[@cadillacdeville5828]

That show adaptation is horrible...they have the chemistry of wet paint drying.

[@rodneycooperjr3223]

Not to disrespect your opinion, but there are so many people that don't seem to understand that the 2024 TV show is not an adaptation of the movie. Regarding the lack of chemistry, that was literally the whole point. They were two awkward people thrown into an awkward situation, but had to "be" married. Of course they didn't have chemistry.

[@cadillacdeville5828]

@@rodneycooperjr3223 with that being stated... It still seems Force when they are on screen. You can have lack of chemistry with someone as the meaning behind a the role and yet still have it not feeling forced when you're on screen.

[@rodneycooperjr3223]

@@cadillacdeville5828 I just think what you're seeing with them was a creative choice, just based on having seen them both in other roles. I fully believe they knew what they were doing and it was intentional.

[@adampatino5372]

Wtf kinda pronunciation is that? "Boo-gotta" @6:11 It's pronounced "Beau-Go-tah"

[@jliller]

I've always pronounced it Beau-got-ah"

[@PodyTheCirate]

WTF happened to WTF happened, I usually enjoy these

[@CraigBelldina]

The worst pronunciation ever. Bogota... .superfluous.? etc. SMH.

[@RexBanner_]

I'll tell you what happened, the 2024 TV series kicked this movies ass.

[@Daltoncom]

The last movie Angelina was hot in and not a skeleton or mutilated by plastic surgery

[@myfootballjesus]

they tried to make a TV show about it but messed it up and changed things , Race swapped the characters and no one liked it

[@ABoyandHisDog-pd3lb]

Movie is GREAT! The show SUCKS!

[@fraudsarentfriends4717]

It was a very dumb generic action movie. The only reason some people might say they like it would be from the special effects or stunts and not really the movie.

[@ParisLawLess]

What the fuck bro

[@paulallen6069]

Need to work on that pronunciation of Bogota, bud.

[@booboobumbum6602]

It was not a good action movie
