Kevin Hart Opens Up About Working With Will Smith On ‘Trains, Planes and Automobile’ Remake
Get ready for a roller coaster ride! Kevin Hart is all set to take fans on a ride with Will Smith as they prepare Trains, Planes and Automobiles remake. Yes, the road comedy movie released in 1987 starring Steve Martin and John Candy will be recreated by Smith and Hart.
The two travelers are unwillingly stuck with each other in the original movie while they both want to reach before Thanksgiving to Chicago. While the movie was a major success back in the 80s, Hart and Smith's comedy duo is anticipated to create the same magic on-screen once again.
In a recent interview, the 41-year-old comedian opened up about willing to work with Smith for a long time and how they have been discussing doing a project together but couldn't find anything fitting to both of their personalities.
“Me and Will have been talking about doing a movie for the longest time, and we just [couldn’t] put our finger on what that movie was. For us to get to a point where we agree that said the material was our project -- because our personalities not only fit, but we could really pop,” he explained. The comedian further said that it was a no-brainer for them to select this project.
The comedian revealed that working on the remake of this movie seems pretty exciting to both of them, and they can't wait to start the process of its making. Hart also disclosed that they already spoke with the studio about the remake, and they are happy with the decision.
Hart further revealed that the studio is working on the script process while he is occupied with his fourth bundle of joy, who recently arrived in his life. The comedian and his wife, Eniko Parrish, welcomed Kaori Mai in their family, who joined Kenzo, 2.
The comedian shares two more children with his previous wife, Torrei Hart, 12-year-old son, Hendrix, and 15-year-old daughter, Heaven. Hart considered the gender balance amongst his kids and said that Kenzo and Hendrix, including him, are extremely excited about having a little girl in the family.
