Kevin Hart is set to star in and produce the third project in STX Entertainment partnership with Hart’s HartBeat Productions. 

Night Wolf is a superhero comedy feature from Detective Pikachu scribes Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit. It follows “a Meet the Parents-esque encounter where a man (Hart) meets his future father-in-law for the first time only to discover he is secretly the superhero known as the Night Wolf.”

“After we acquired Night Wolf, we submitted it to Kevin Hart and the Team at HartBeat hoping they would love it as much as we did. It is a big, broad comedy and the idea is great fun and perfectly matched with Kevin’s comedic talent. We are thrilled to be working on what will now be our fourth film together,” said Chairman of STXfilms Adam Fogelson who made the announcement this morning.

Hart most recently voice starred in The Secret Life of Pets 2. You can see him next in Jumanji: The Next Level.
