Which films include cameos by Will Smith? Since the mid-'90s, he's been one of the industry's most financially-successful A-list actors, and has even earned Oscar nominations for lead performances in the 2000s movies Ali and The Pursuit of Happyness. Smith previously headlined the iconic '90s TV show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, so he's well-educated in comedic timing and the art of the cameo.

In the late '80s, Smith won four Grammy Awards as one half of the group DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. He later transformed into a household name thanks to his multi-season run on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, which includes various cameos from none other than  Jeffrey Towns, a.k.a. DJ Jazzy Jeff, as the protagonist's friend Jazz. In a recurring gag, Jazz is repeatedly thrown out of Will's Bel-Air home; a wink-of-the-eye nod to long-time fans that allows for dozens upon dozens of cameos over six seasons.

As Smith transitioned away from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in the mid-'90s, he evolved into a legit movie star. Bad Boys and Independence Day established him as a viable action star, while Men in Black cemented his status as a bankable lead. Smith later took on so-called "serious roles," but has always retained his sense of humor and shown that he doesn't always need to be the center of attention. Here's a complete list of every Will Smith movie cameo.

Jersey Girl (2004)

He labels Smith as a "two-bit TV" actor during a press event, and ultimately has a waiting room encounter with The Fresh Prince late in the movie.

Ollie experiences an epiphany and then skips a planned interview in order to attend his daughter's talent show.
