Kevin Hart is an American comedian, actor, and producer, known for his energetic humor, self-deprecating jokes, and diverse range of roles in both film and television. Born on July 6, 1979, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Hart started his career by winning several amateur comedy competitions at clubs throughout New England, culminating in his first real break in 2001 when he was cast by Judd Apatow for a recurring role on the TV series "Undeclared."
His early film roles were in movies such as "Paper Soldiers" (2002), "Scary Movie 3" (2003), "Soul Plane" (2004), and "Little Fockers" (2010). However, Hart's breakthrough came with his stand-up comedy tours. His 2011 tour, "Laugh at My Pain," was particularly successful and turned him into one of the leading comedians in the United States. It was followed by other successful tours like "Let Me Explain" (2013) and "What Now?" (2016).
Alongside his stand-up career, Hart's film career also flourished. He starred in hits such as "Think Like a Man" (2012), "Grudge Match" (2013), "Ride Along" (2014) and its sequel, "Central Intelligence" (2016), and "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" (2017) and its sequel. His comedic style often involves making light of his short stature, family life, and experiences as an African American man.
Beyond acting and comedy, Hart has also made a name for himself in the business world. He founded HartBeat Productions, a production company through which he has produced various films and television series. He's also active in philanthropy, particularly in his hometown of Philadelphia.
Hart's personal life, particularly his relationships and parenting, often feature in his stand-up routines. He has children and has been open about the challenges and joys of fatherhood and family life. Despite facing controversies and setbacks, including a major car accident in 2019, Hart has continued to be a prominent figure in entertainment, admired for his resilience, work ethic, and ability to connect with diverse audiences.
