Fans are expressing concern about Martin Lawrence's health following his recent public appearances.
Earlier this month, Lawrence and Will Smith sat down for an interview with Extra to promote their upcoming film Bad Boys: Ride or Die. Martin's behavior during the interview caught the attention of fans who claimed the actor was speaking slower and slurring his words.
Fans grew more concerned after another Bad Boys promotional event at the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood, California on Thursday (May 30).
Smith, along with his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and his three children, Trey, 31, Jaden, 25, and Willow, 23, arrived at the event on top of a double-decker bus. The Bad Boys star was also joined by Lawrence, directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer.
In a video shared by Entertainment Tonight, Smith held Lawrence's hand as he guided his co-star to the front of the bus, sparking fan concern about why the comedian couldn't walk on his own.
"Did Will just help Martin walk? The way it looks Martin seems off." one Instagram user wrote.
"Something is definitely happening with Martin 😮," another said.
Some social media users cited that Lawrence recently lost his brother and noted that he suffered a stroke a few years ago. The current status of Lawrence's health remains unclear.
Bad Boys: Ride or Die is set to hit theaters on June 5.
