When movie fans think of action stars, names like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Donnie Yen, Bruce Willis, and Jason Statham come to mind. However, Prime Video and Kevin Hart are adding another killing machine to the ranks. No, seriously, the new action daredevil is Kevin Hart. What? I’m not joking. Did you watch the Die Hart 2: Die Harter trailer above? You did? Well, then, I don’t know what to tell you. Stranger things have happened.
Exploding onto Prime Video on May 30, Die Hart 2: Die Harter stars Kevin Hart as an idealized and action-ready version of himself. In the Die Hart 2: Die Harter trailer, Hart stages a restaurant terror attack to help pitch his new film. When the studio rep, Jordan (Nathalie Emmanuel), discovers the actor’s ruse, she blacklists Hart from her banner and threatens to ruin his name throughout the industry. Not to be deterred,...

Loki: Hot Toys Unveils "God Loki" Figure, Offering Detailed Look At New Costume From Season 2 Finale
In the closing moments of Loki's season 2 finale, the God of Mischief destroyed the Temporal Loom and created a new, endless Multiverse which he sits at the centre of.
We're sure "God Loki" will eventually return, particularly with Kang gearing up to embark on a Multiversal War and Incursions destroying many of these new realities. While powering up to replace the Loom, Loki's costume underwent a startling transformation, and our best look yet at that comes in the form of a new 1/6th scale Hot Toys action figure.
Two versions will be available; a limited edition with rooted hair, and another with a traditional head sculpt.
"Exquisitely crafted based on the screen appearance of Tom Hiddleston as God Loki in the finale, the figure features a newly developed head sculpt with separate rolling eyeballs," reads the official product description. "The fabric costume has been finely tailored to match Loki's on-screen appearance,...

“Loki” could conjure up a Best Drama Series nomination this year and give Disney and Marvel representation at this year’s Emmys. The second season of “Loki” continues the journey of Tom Hiddleston‘s titular former villain as he attempts to save the multiverse. Loki traverses the multiverse with the help of Owen Wilson‘s Mobius, Ke Huy Quan‘s Ouroboros, Sophia Di Martino‘s Sylvie, and Wunmi Mosaku‘s Hunter B-15. They are hoping to repair the damage caused to the multiverse during the events of the first season, with Kang (Jonathan Majors) again at the center of the trouble.
Season one was greeted with rapturous applause and this sophomore outing has been met with the same response.
Bob Strauss (The Wrap) observed: “Characters with compelling issues, high existential drama, quirky comedy and world-threatening action are blended better than in any other Disney+ show to date.”

Loki stars Tom Hiddleston, Owen Wilson and Sophia Di Martino joined Deadline’s Contenders TV event Saturday to discuss set design, character motivations and the potential future of the Disney+ series beyond Season 2.
As the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to churn out box office hits, it’s hard to believe that Hiddleston’s star-making turn as the celestial trickster brother to the hammer-wielding god Thor started well over a decade ago.
“I’ve absolutely loved playing Loki; it’s been 15 years, and it is the most magnificent and emotional roller coaster for the twists and turns,” Hiddleston said. “He has so much range and so much complexity, it never feels like [I’m playing] the same thing. But I know the reason I’m standing here in front of you today is that the audience has such curiosity and passion for and a connection to him.”

Kang the Conqueror was positioned to be the next great villain of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, in the same way Thanos was for the Infinity Saga. However, in the wake of Jonathan Majors getting fired, the idea has been up in the air, as fans try to speculate who would be the next villain in the MCU.
Ravonna Renslayer, in Loki Season 1
While a slew of fans want Majors replaced, and another section of the fandom wants a new villain to take over from Kang altogether, a theory has come out to put Ravonna Renslayer at the center of this conversation, pushing for her to become the next big bad in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Ravonna Renslayer would be the perfect replacement for Kang the Conqueror

After behind-the-scenes conflict marred the final cut of 2019’s Men In Black: International, director F. Gary Gray returns with a simpler premise for Lift. The story initially begins at an auction in Venice, where international thief Cyrus Whitaker (Kevin Hart) arrives to bid on an item. Keeping an eye on Cyrus is Interpol agent Abby Gladwell (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), although it becomes clear that this is part of the plan when Cyrus’ team evades the agents to simultaneously kidnap an Nft artist and steal a Van Gogh painting.

Kevin Hart is back with another Netflix film but this time instead of a comedy we see him as a master thief. Directed by F. Gary Gray, the Netflix film Lift revolves around a group of thieves who join hands with Interpol to get immunity for their past crime, but to do that they have to steal half a billion dollars worth of gold from a flying airplane without being caught by the owner of the gold, who is surprise surprise the bad guy. Lift also stars Úrsula Corberó, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Sam Worthington, Billy Magnussen, Kim Yoon-ji, Jean Reno, and Vincent D’Onofrio starring in supporting roles. So, if you loved Lift and all of its action here are some similar films you could watch next.

Lift by F. Gary Gray is streaming on Netflix, and it boasts a great cast, which is perhaps the reason you gave the film a chance. Now, the film doesn’t have the freshness that one expects from a Gray film, nor is there any intent to produce a mind-bending heist thriller. So what are we left with then? Another ‘international project’ Netflix film where talents from around the globe are hired to ‘mix’ things up, and one can identify their regional performers and hoot for them if one isn’t not getting engaged by the plot. But I don’t think movies work like that. It’s not a spectator sport where one can cheer for favorite players. It’s music; the melody, the notes, the crescendo, and all that very nuanced stuff has to work for us to enjoy the piece. But let’s say this particular film...

Lift, a thrilling heist film currently streaming on Netflix, has been directed by F. Gary Gray. The film stars famous faces like Ursula Corbero, Kevin Hart, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and a host of other skilled actors. Much like the concept of the Spanish series Money Heist (2017), Lift focuses on a gang of robbers trying to steal expensive artifacts and sell them in the black market. The team is hell-bent on gaining the right price for a piece of art from the dark web rather than just letting it be sold in any ordinary auction. It is their teamwork that helps them. They managed to succeed in their international art heists, and the expertise of every member adds value to the team. The wonderful cast of the film could, however, not stop the film from having an inadequate plot! Abby, the Interpol agent, joins the team for an unexpected heist to take...

Plot: A band of expert criminals led by Cyrus Whitaker is recruited to do what they do best — lift $500 million in gold from a passenger plane— but they must do it mid-flight at 40,000 feet!
Review: The entire plot of the Quibi/Roku series Die Hart hinges on Kevin Hart wanting to break out of comedy roles so he can be taken seriously as an action hero. While that plot was played for laughs, it was not the first time Hart tried something different. Both his films The Upside and Fatherhood, as well as the Netflix limited series True Story gave Hart more opportunities to channel his dramatic talents, but Lift is the comedian’s first project that is straight action without the reliance on his being the butt of the joke.

CinemaBlind’s Review – 70%
F. Gary Gray‘s latest Netflix heist film is coming tomorrow and for the people who are excited about film Lift, CinemaBlind is here to watch and judge the upcoming film in advance for you. Starring Kevin Hart in the leading role, the film revolves around a group of master thieves whom Interpol catches at the beginning of the film, but they are offered full immunity and in turn, they will have to pull off a seemingly impossible heist.
Lift is another one of Netflix’s blockbuster cinema like what they tried to do with Ryan Reynolds‘ 6 Underground and Red Notice, but the good thing here is that it is better than both of those films but it is also nowhere near the great heist film like Ocean’s Eleven or Gary Gray’s own The Italian Job.

After parodying his attempts to become an action-movie star in the Quibi/Roku short film series Die Hart (later compiled into a Amazon Prime feature), Kevin Hart goes for the gold in the genre and attempts to do the real thing in Lift, an absurdly ridiculous, over the top but still entertaining heist movie that strains credibility at every turn — but who cares because it’s got Hart.
The latest bloated Netflix star-driven action epic on the scale of Red Notice and The Gray Man, this one has our star as master art thief Cyrus Whitaker, whom we meet with his team trying to pull off one of their signature thefts at a Venice Italy auction house involving an Nft (just to keep this as contemporary as they come), leading to a wild boat chase all over the colorful canals but not ending well for the gang.

Kevin Hart arrived at SiriusXM in style on Jan. 9, keeping his fashion modest but classy when discussing his upcoming movie.
Hart sported a long-sleeved gray sweater during his interview. The sweater was complemented by a pair of darker colored spotted pants and white sneakers that completed his sophisticated look.
Hart shared stories from the Lift set with his co-stars. While it was his turn to speak, it was hard to ignore the high-class watch that flashed on his wrist, putting an exclamation mark at the end of his fashion statement.

James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water became the biggest hit of 2022 in the tail-end of that year. The worldwide box office take certainly proved that the franchise still had legs. Even before the sci-fi epic released, Cameron revealed that principal photography had wrapped on Avatar 3 since filming back-to-back with The Way of Water, and the movie’s post-production journey was well underway. Additionally, Cameron had been shooting Avatar 4 and accounted for a break in production to allow the children in the cast to grow since the story would feature a six-year time jump.
As Sam Worthington attended the premiere for his new film, Netflix’s Lift, he revealed to People that they will resume filming for Avatar 4 sometime next month. Worthington teases, “We go back to work on it in a month and it’s big. It’s bigger than you can imagine.” Worthington will...

The New Year lifts off on January 12 when Kevin Hart and his crew plan a heist like no other— at 40,000 ft. Netflix loves Kevin Hart and has given him a couple of Netflix comedy specials, and the comedian loves the streamer back. While his buddy Dwayne Johnson seems to be noticeably absent in this new heist ensemble action film, “Lift,” —it feels like the type of movie Hart would co-star in with The Rock— the film does look exactly like the kind of starry, expensive vehicle that Netflix typically backs.

A nearly unrecognizable Sofia Vergara playing a cartel boss, a new retelling of the story of the Uruguayan rugby team that crash-landed in the Andes in 1972, Kevin Hart assembling a team for a daring heist and Dan Levy dealing with loss and grief are among the standout projects hitting Netflix this January.
Spanish director J.A. Bayona’s Society of the Snow lands on Netflix on Jan. 4.

While Kang is the most prominent time-traveling villain in Marvel Comics, it’s notable that he never seems interested in using time travel to change the past, preferring instead to visit different eras so he can conquer them, and build up his vast army along the way.
If you gave the executives at Marvel Studios a time machine, though, chances are the first thing they’d choose would be to go back and undo their decision to hire Jonathan Majors to play Kang in various MCU movies and TV shows,...

Note: This story contains spoilers from the “Loki” Season 2 finale.
By the end of “Loki” Season 2, the God of Mischief has mastered his timeslipping abilities and transformed into the God of Stories, sitting at the center of Yggdrasil, the World Tree of Norse mythology that gives structure to the universe and supports the 9 realms of existence.
During the finale, viewers watch as the Marvel-villian-turned-antihero spends centuries using his newfound power to try to change the outcome of the Temporal Loom exploding. Given the fact that this ability theoretically allows the Asgardian to revisit any point in time, it begs the question, would he try to change his shocking death in the 2018 film “Avengers: Infinity War”?
“My instinctive response is he would be tempted, but he would choose not to go back there and change the outcome,” actor Tom Hiddleston told TheWrap. “[Loki has] arrived at where he is because of...

Like several British actors before her, Gugu Mbatha-Raw was interested in acting, dance, and musical theater at a young age. Born to a South African father and an English mother, Mbatha-Raw was raised mostly by her mother after her parents separated when she was a year old. At 21, after graduating from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (Rada), Mbatha-Raw made her acting debut on television. Two to three years after her debut, her talents and acting skills landed her roles in BBC’s Spooks and Doctor Who. Mbatha-Raw has starred with fellow British actor David Oyelowo in three feature films.

Tom Hiddleston’s Loki loved playing a slippery trickster until he started literally slipping through time inside the Time Variance Authority. After the twists and turns of Season 1 of the Marvel character’s eponymous Disney+ series, “Loki” returned for a second season on Oct. 5 — and oh how time flies, the season is already coming to an end.
The Marvel series, starring Owen Wilson as Agent Mobius, Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Judge Ravonna Renslayer and Sophia Di Martino as Sylvie, sets a precedent as the first MCU TV show to return for a second season on Disney+. Marvel’s last television project to hit the streamer was “Secret Invasion.”
Oscar-winner Ke Huy Quan joins the MCU as “Ob,” whom Mobius and Loki consult for the time-slipping problem, but though Ob knows what is happening and has seen it before, he does not have a solution for the pair.

Phases 4 and 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have had some pretty intimidating villains thus far. From Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir) and his plans to take over the Earth for all Skrulls to Wenwu (Tony Leung) and his ancient rings of power to He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors) and the threat of his variants, the stakes of the Multiverse Saga have been just as formidable to overcome as Thanos and those who came before. But there’s one Loki villain who might just have them all beat – the sentient A.I. clock we all know as Miss Minutes (Tara Strong).
Now stay with me here. I’m not saying that Miss Minutes is necessarily the strongest or most powerful villain. What I’m saying is that she is by far the most ruthless, sadistic, and terrifying villain we’ve seen thus far in the Multiverse Saga,...

“Reacher” is a throwback series. No, it doesn’t take place in the past—it is very much a modern setting. But if you watch it and are reminded of the very best ‘80s/‘90s R-rated action films, then you’re not wrong either. It’s a series that is unlike anything else going right now, and thus, it seems to have found a loyal fanbase eager to see it return for a new season.

Ocean's 11,0000 feet? The heist, as it turns out, takes place at a slightly higher altitude in Kevin Hart's new film, but this certainly feels like the comedy actor's attempt to make another action thriller, albeit this time without Dwayne Johnson. And on a slightly less comedic bent than, say, the :a[Ride Along]{href='https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/ride-along-review/' } movies. Check out the trailer for Lift.
The basic setup is this: a band of expert criminals led by Cyrus Whitaker (Hart) is recruited by Interpol agent Abby Gladwell (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) to prevent a terrorist attack by doing what they do best — robbing the rich.
It’s a simple Lift, nothing complicated. Other than the fact that the heist will take place on a plane in mid-flight. Call it some unexpected turbulence…

"It's impossible." "It just hasn't been done before." Can they pull it off? Netflix has revealed the first trailer for a new heist action comedy called Lift, coming to Netflix to watch in January 2024 early next year. This trailer just debuted during a big NFL game, which means Netflix is trying to make this one of their next big hits. Does it really have that potential? An international heist crew, led by Cyrus Whitaker, race to lift $500 million in gold from a passenger plane while flying at 40,000 feet. It's from the same director as The Italian Job remake and Law Abiding Citizen, F. Gary Gray, so it might actually be pretty cool to see them pull this off. Kevin Hart stars as Cyrus, with Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Vincent D'Onofrio, Úrsula Corberó, Billy Magnussen, Jacob Batalon, Viveik Kalra, Yun Jee Kim, Burn Gorman, Paul Anderson, as well as Jean Reno and Sam Worthington.

Who’s the next big action hero? Well, if Netflix has anything to do with it, it’ll be Kevin Hart, with them dropping the trailer for the comedian’s upcoming movie, Lift. A heist film in the vein of Fast & Furious, in it Hart plays the leader of a high-tech gang of crooks hired by the government to steal $500 million in gold that’s being used to fund a terror cell. What’s the catch? The gold is on a passenger plane, and the gang needs to steal it mid-flight.
While this sounds like it would be easy peasy for the Fast & Furious gang, Hart’s crew is a little less badass. It includes Billy Magnussen and Úrsula Corberó, who, it should be noted, isn’t new to stealing cash following a few seasons on Netflix’s Money Heist.
