Career

Following his high school graduation, Kevin Hart began his career. In this instance, he turned into a shoe salesman in Massachusetts. He realized that humor was his passion and continued to be a stand-up comedian. He used his spirit to endure his troubled childhood family life with this in mind.

After that, his debut took place at The Laff House in Philadelphia, where he wore Lil Kev as his stage name. Unfortunately, his career was not successful at that time. As a result, he participated in comedy competitions, and his performance ultimately improved. Furthermore, he pursued a career in the film industry, with an emphasis on comedy.

Undeclared was where he made his first TV appearance. His debut in Paper Soldiers was more significant in 2002. He played a significant role in the 2012 movie Think Like a Man.

In 2003, he made his debut in the comedy horror film ‘Scary Movie 3’, which is the third film in the Scary Movie franchise. Despite receiving below average reviews, the film was a huge success commercially. During that year, he made an appearance in the film ‘Death of a Dynasty’. He played the lead role in the comedy film ‘Soul Plane’ in 2004. The film was not successful financially and received negative reviews. The Scary Movie franchise’s fourth film, ‘Scary Movie 4’, was where he played his next important role.

Over the years that followed, he made appearances in movies like ‘Epic Movie’ (2007), ‘Superhero Movie’ (2008), ‘Not Easily Broken’ (2008), ‘Death at a Funeral’ (2010), and ‘Little Fockers’ (2010). One of the key roles in the 2012 romantic comedy film ‘Think Like a Man’ was played by him.

In 2009, he started his comedy tours with his act ‘I’m a Grown Little Man’ and followed it with ‘Seriously Funny’ in 2010. He proceeded to participate in the ‘Laugh at My Pain’ and ‘Let Me Explain’ tours, which were also presented as features in movie theaters. Three comedy albums have also been released by him.

He played the role of lead in the action comedy film ‘Ride Along’ in 2014. In the same year, he appeared in the romantic comedy movie ‘About Last Night’. It was a success both in terms of criticality and commerciality. Despite being a commercial success, his next film, ‘Get Hard’, was a critical failure.

‘Central Intelligence’ and ‘The Secret Life of Pets’ were two of his significant works in 2016. Both films achieved commercial and critical success. In 2017, he was the main voice actor for the animated movie ‘Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie’.
