Let's Chat About Kevin Hart: Ditching Daring Acts Post On-Set Mishap
Actor Kevin Hart Loses Enthusiasm for Stunts Following the Occurrence - Losing interest in acrobatic feats following the unfortunate event.
Here's the lowdown on the comedian, Kevin Hart: turns out, he's lost his zest for risky stunts following a freak accident!
You heard it right — the 45-year-old hilarious actor spilled the beans during an interview on the spicy series, "Hot Ones." Apparently, it all happened during a joint shoot for the action comedy "Ride Along" (2014) alongside none other than the legendary rapper, Ice Cube. Things took an unexpected turn when Ice Cube accidentally landed a punch on one of the stuntmen, causing the poor guy to pass out cold for a split second. Astonished, Kevin reflected, "Whoa! You can actually get walloped? Right here in the action world!"
The stuntman swore he was fine after the ordeal, but a tiny trickle of blood streaming from his nostrils caught Kevin's eyes. That was the moment Kevin decided he'd had enough with performing his own stunts, "From that day onward, I stopped longing for daring feats." Back in the day, he used to egg his co-stars on, urging them to smack or pummel him, but at 45, he claims he wouldn't even break a sweat running these days.
Before hitting the big-time Hollywood scene, Kevin Hart cut his teethperforming in comedy clubs. He rose to fame with a string of successful action and adventure comedies like "Ride Along", "Central Intelligence", "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle", and "Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw". So much for the carefree daredevil life, eh? Keep an eye out for this Leon S. Kennedy wannabe, folks. He may be scaling back his stunts, but comedy's clearly in his blood!
In that action comedy "Ride Along" (2014), Kevin Hart revealed his diminished appetite for risky stunts after an unexpected incident involving Ice Cube and a stuntman getting injured. Hart confessed that he stopped desiring daring feats following the accident, as he was startled by the realization that getting hurt was indeed possible in the action world. Interestingly, before his Hollywood success, Hart honed his skills in comedy clubs.
