"Get Hard"
Kevin
Hart confirms T.I. "s involvement in a film with Will Ferrell that is believed
to be "Get Hard."
T.I. is set to join Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell in an upcoming film, according
to Hart. The comedian made an Instagram post announcing the involvement of Ferrell
and T.I.
"Me & Will Ferrell are about to do a movie together people!!! All
I can say is HOLYSHIT & and happy to say that brother/Friend @troubleman31
will be apart of this amazing project as well!!! My hustle never stops!!! This
could be legendary people!!!!" Hart said in his caption for the Instagram
post which includes Ferrell, Hart and T.I.
The film is believed to be Get Hard, a project that Variety confirmed in September
2013. "Pic follows a wealthy investment bank manager who is convicted of
a crime he didn’t commit and prepares for prison with help from the guy
who washes his car," Variety said at the time. Ian Roberts and Jay Martel
are writing the script. Sarah Schechter will oversee for the studio. The pic
should move quickly into production if the studio wants to oblige Ferrell and
Hart’s busy schedules. Hart is becoming one of those rising stars who
seems to be getting more and more gigs and Warners would like to make sure his
next project is one with their studio and not elsewhere."
Recently, Hart saw success with another rapper in Ride Along, a film that he
worked on with Ice Cube. The film made approximately $93 million in three weeks.
The motion picture was also the #1 film at the box office for those three consecutive
weeks.
In November, T.I. spoke about his acting roles. "Right now, I "m currently
filming the third season of "House of Lies " with Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell,
and I "m co-starring along with Mekhi Phifer, and we "re just having a phenomenal
time," he said at the time. T.I. also starred in Holiday Hustle, an animated
holiday special for VH1.
