Kevin Hart and John Cena are joining forces in, you guessed it, an action comedy from streaming giant Netflix. Not only are the movie stars destined to become a fierce combination, they will do so adapting a killer mid-2000s comic book series.
Deadline reports that Hart and Cena are set to star in and produce The Leading Man, a feature-length adaptation of B. Clay Moore and Jeremy Haun’s comic book series of the same name. The project is in early development, but writers Jon and Erich Hoeber have officially sold their pitch to Netflix, which has a multi-picture deal with Hart. Read the film’s splashy logline:
When a self-absorbed movie star (Cena) discovers that his co-star/man in the chair (Hart) is an actual agent, he’s forced to swallow his pride and accept that action stars aren’t really action heroes…while trying to save the world.
More to come.
