Jamie Foxx & Kevin Hart Up For Black Phantom, With Tim Story Directing

March 11, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jamie-foxxWith a title like Black Phantom, you might expect Jamie Foxx and Kevin Hart are trying to rebalance the largely white world of superhero movies – especially with Fantastic Four helmer Tim Story attached to helm – but it’s actually a comedy thriller, according to Variety.

The film follows a double-crossed mob hitman who enlists the help of the Black Phantom, the same African-American hitman who had been sent to kill him.’ It’s not clear which of those character Foxx and and Hart will play.

The film will reunite Hart and Story, who are just coming off the success of Ride Along. It’s not clear when it will shoot.

Ride Along Teaser – Ice Cube doesn’t want Kevin Hart hanging around

July 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Ice Cube doesn’t seem to like Kevin Hart very much in Ride Along, and to be honest, on the evidence of this trailer, I can’t say I blame him – he’s pretty annoying.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Kevin Hart and Ice Cube lead the lineup in Ride Along, the new film from the director and the producer of the blockbuster comedy Think Like a Man. When a fast-talking guy joins his girlfriend’s brother—a hot-tempered cop—to patrol the streets of Atlanta, he gets entangled in the officer’s latest case.

‘Now, in order to prove that he deserves his future bride, he must survive the most insane 24 hours of his life.
For the past two years, high-school security guard Ben (Hart) has been trying to show decorated APD detective James (Cube) that he’s more than just a video-game junkie who’s unworthy of James’ sister, Angela (Tika Sumpter). When Ben finally gets accepted into the academy, he thinks he’s earned the seasoned policeman’s respect and asks for his blessing to marry Angela.

‘Knowing that a ride along will demonstrate if Ben has what it takes to take care of his sister, James invites him on a shift designed to scare the hell out of the trainee. But when the wild night leads them to the most notorious criminal in the city, James will find that his new partner’s rapid-fire mouth is just as dangerous as the bullets speeding at it.’

It’ll be out at the beginning of next year.

Think Like A Man (DVD)

October 18, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Michael Ealy, Taraji P. Henson, Kevin Hart, Gabrielle Union, Jerry Ferrara
Director: Tim Story
Running Time: 117 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: October 15th 2012

It’s quite a feat to create a movie that seems both misogynist and misandrist at the same time, but that’s probably because this is a film based on a self-help book, and so like most self-help books about relationships, it seems to assume men and women are essentially completely different species, and also that they’re all pretty stupid. However, if you can accept that the characters here are essentially parodies of real people (at least I hope so and that I’m not giving the human race too much credit), there is some measure of entertainment to be had here, even if it goes on way too long and suffers from the fact its multiple stories often mean we have to have the same scene over and over.

John Leguizamo Going On A Ride Along With Ice Cube

October 17, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s rarely a bad idea to cast John Leguizamo in a film, something director Tim Story (Think Like a Man) seems to have realised, as Variety reports he’s busy signing the actor to join the cast of Ride Along.

The movie is about a hard-nosed cop (Ice Cube) who is extremely protective of his sister. When her new boyfriend (Kevin Hart) wants to marry her, he is taken on a police ride-along to prove himself to his future brother-in-law. John Leguizamo will play an undercover cop in the comedy.

Greg Coolidge wrote the screenplay, based on an earlier draft by Steve Faber and Bob Fisher (Wedding Crashers). It isn’t known when the movie will go into production.
