About This Program

Hancock is a programme presented under the title “Hancock”, listed as a movie‑type offering. It falls within the broader classification of a programme and is marketed as a film rather than a series or documentary. The entry is identified simply by its name and format, without reference to a specific release year or production crew. The central narrative follows a public‑relations executive who takes on the task of reshaping the public perception of a superhero plagued by chronic intoxication. This hero’s approach to crime‑fighting is reckless, and his interventions often cause more trouble than they resolve. The PR professional’s goal is to overhaul the hero’s image, attempting to turn a chaotic, harmful presence into something more palatable for the public. The story is framed as a comedy, using humour to explore the clash between the superhero’s careless antics and the executive’s calculated image‑crafting. The comedic tone is central to the premise, highlighting the absurdity of trying to market a drunken vigilante whose actions frequently backfire. Will Smith appears in the leading role, portraying the titular superhero whose reputation the PR executive seeks to rehabilitate. His involvement anchors the comedic premise, providing the primary focus for the film’s exploration of image management and the unintended consequences of well‑intentioned publicity efforts.
