The "AGT" judge was welcomed to the Innocence Project in the video as he has now joined them in the fight for justice for wrongly jailed individuals.
Williams' ordeal began in 1983 when he was convicted for rape, a crime he did not commit. Archie, who was 220years old at the time, was sentenced to life in prison.
He spent thirty-six years in prison following his conviction as he was unable to fight back due to a lack of funds. The Innocence Project took up his case in the 1990s, but he was not released until March 2019.
Archie revealed that his music ambition was able to survive because he never allowed his mind to go to prison. He watched "AGT" while he was behind bars and always imagined himself performing on the show. Archie still tries to get his head around his freedom.
For the first time since the show came into existence, it is being filmed in the absence of a live audience, and some auditions had to be done remotely.
Simon is assuring viewers that the show has maintained its high quality even though many things have changed. He also plans to reach the finals this year without compromising any of the contestants.
