Not a lot of people know of the new streaming platform Quibi but that is about to change as they are stacking up an array of impressive content for prospective viewers, with Die Hart starring Kevin Hart and John Travolta being among its most entertaining.
The upcoming action series is going to be as hilarious as its title, with comedy star Kevin Hart and Hollywood veteran John Travolta lending their acting talents to the project.
Variety reports that the plot of the series will feature Hart play a fictionalized version of himself and will be a part of an action school with the aim of achieving his dream of being an action star.
Travolta will portray the mad person who runs the school and will add to Hart’s character’s frustration as the latter will be pushed to the edge in his determination to overcome what becomes of his involvement in the school.
See the synopsis as reported by Variety:
In “Die Hart,” Hart plays a fictionalized version of himself who is tired of being the comedic sidekick. He gets his wish when a famous director offers him his dream – to be a leading man action star – but there’s a catch: Hart must first train at the world’s greatest action star school, run by a lunatic (Travolta). Pushed to his limits by this action school coach and a tough-minded rival student, Hart must survive a series of hilarious, over-the-top action sequences and face his fears if he wants to achieve his dream and land the role of a lifetime.
The series is directed by Eric Appel with a script from Derek Kolstad. Production is scheduled to begin this Monday in something that could be even more exciting than it seems to be.
Die Hart and other shows will be made available after the official launch of the Quibi streaming platform which will take place on April 6, 2020.
