"In this documentary, wealthy entrepreneur Bryan Johnson puts his body and fortune on the line to defy ageing and extend his life beyond all known limits," says the description of the documentary on the Netflix website.
Smith has also produced Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever, for Library Films, alongside Ashlee Vance and Daniel Koehler.
Talking to Netflix's publication Tudum, Smith said that a news headline talking about a man spending $2 million to be 18 again sparked his curiosity.
