Things seem to be going pretty well for popular comedian Kevin Hart these days as he jumps from project to project.
The actor has been chosen as the star in the upcoming action-comedy movie On the Run.
The Hollywood Reporter already confirms his participation. The script will be written by Aeysha Carr (Brooklyn Nine-Nine) and the production will be led by Will Parker (Girls Trip).
The role of Hart is one of a hitman who faces unexpected difficulties on a job when the target surprises him.
It has also been reported that Hart will not only be in front of the cameras and will take part in the production as well.
This will not be the first time Parker and Hart are working together, as they did before on the set for Ride Along series and also for the upcoming comedy Night School from Universal.
Carr is currently working as the scriptwriter for Hart’s series, The Studi, which is still in development.
Hart is going to star in Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle next, a reboot of the classic movie with Robin Williams, scheduled for release on Christmas Day.
He was also one of the candidates for the role of the Genie in the live-action reboot of the famous animation Alladin, but at the end, Will Smith got the part.
According to rumors, Hart is going to voice the talking car KITT in a reboot of Knight Rider.
The comedy star first tried as an actor after his Laugh at My Pain tour in 2011. It was during this time that he gathered popularity and success.
Among his many awards for acting are the BET Award for Best Actor in 2012, Teen Choice Award for Comedic Movie Actor, and many others.
Fans are happy to see Hart rebounding after a couple of months of awful press over some cheating allegations.
