And the role of Neo in The Matrix.
Coming off the success of a number of films, Smith said he was more interested in taking what he thought would be a commercial hit, which is why he turned down The Matrix so he could star in flop Wild Wild West. He also didn't want to be known as "the Alien Movie Guy," though refusing the role in the hugely successful film became a quick regret.

To be fair, it's hard to know in advance which movie is going to be good and which is going to be a trainwreck.
In Will Smith's case for example, if someone just described the concept for " Wild, wild west", it sounds pretty amazing. While you could easily interpret "The Matrix" as: "sounds a bit crazy and out there".

I just watched one without him. He was almost in it though.
I’m sick of him almost being in every movie.
