When it comes to stand-up comedy, Kevin Hart is on a level all by himself right now. Say what you want about some of the movie roles he may have taken in the last few years, but the guy has built himself an incredible following with his stand-up act that is tough to match by others in the game right now. He has a third stand-up film, WHAT NOW?, hitting theaters later this year following on the heels of LAUGH AT MY PAIN and LET ME EXPLAIN, which capitalized on his growing popularity.

Hart’s star has never been higher, explaining why Universal wants their taste of his stand-up pie, and they’re hoping to ride this latest movie, which features the comedian selling out a football stadium with his act, to dollar bills at the box office. I don’t anticipate them running into trouble on that front.

There’s a greater spectacle to this show than we’ve gotten from one of Hart’s stand-up films before, and, at this early stage of the game, Universal doesn’t want to give away any of the jokes they’d like you to pay for later. But, in terms of letting you know he’s got something on the way this year just in time for the RIDE ALONG 2 audience to take notice, they’re doing exactly what they’re supposed to do.
