Jerry Seinfeld revealed during a recent interview on the “Fly on the Wall” podcast that he wanted Chris Rock to parody the infamous Oscars slap in his feature directorial debut “Unfrosted,” which recently premiered on Netflix.

Unfrosted wound up casting Cedric the Entertainer as the awards show host. “Chris wasn’t … he wasn’t up to perform. He was still a little shook from the event,” Seinfeld said. “But that was what the scene was going to be. But Cedric saved the day.”

I was going to have somebody come up on the stage and have Chris punch ’em out as they got there,’ Seinfeld explained
