Huh, strange. I thought Willow came out not long ago and said she wanted to back out of being a pop star and spend some time growing up like a normal kid. I guess she changed her mind.
I dunno, it seems like just a big whim Will Smith is out to fulfill so he can have some fun with his kid. Which, as far as reasons for making an unnecessary movie goes, isn't too bad in my book.
Also, are you sure he's directing it? The word your little snippet there uses says "produce," not direct.
