H&M Essentials ad
Beckham and Hart appear in a long-form ad for H&M. Hart follows Beckham for a week in an attempt to get to know him so he can play him in I, Beckham, the movie. Beckham:
Kevin Hart is one of the funniest, smartest guys around. I love to do the unexpected for my H&M campaigns. I hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as I did making it…It’s always an interesting experience to see someone else’s view of how you are. I guess I’m not aware of having a particular pose or look, I’m just being myself. So it’s funny to see that my actions and the way I move are also part of my character. I’ve always thought it was important to not take yourself too seriously, and this campaign is the perfect chance to show why.
Hart:
He told me not to screw it up and he wished I was taller. [Playing him was] very easy…the thing that David and I have in common is sexiness. It comes naturally to me.
Kevin Hart Interview
Hart vacations with Ludacris and explains how Ludacris almost drowns and Hart saves his life on The Ellen Show.
I saved his life, I don’t know if they give out medals.
Ride Along
Hart stars in this action comedy film directed by Tim Story, playing a video game-loving high school security guard named Ben Barber, who aspires to become a police officer to earn the approval of the girlfriend’s brother, played by Ice Cube. To prove himself, he rides along with the brother – an undercover police officer – and together, they try to catch a Serbian smuggler. Cast members include John Leguizamo and Laurence Fishburne.
There are so many laugh-out-loud moments in the movie. My favorite has to be the warehouse, where I slapped Cube and stuck him with a knife. That was so fun! Those were some long days, and he just had to sit there in the chair. Cube didn’t have a lot of activity to do. It was just me, running around. But, there was this one moment where I stick him with the knife. We were really laughing out loud so much, during that take.
Lyft skit
O’Brien tries out the mobile ride-sharing Lyft for the first time along with Kevin Hart and Ice Cube. They catch a ride and drive around Hollywood, grabbing some snacks at 7-11 and buying takeout at Wendy’s.
