In a dazzling move set to elevate the excitement for its hit series, Roku Originals has announced the addition of Kathryn Hahn, J.K. Simmons, Tony Cavalero, and Anna Garcia to the cast of Die Hart season three. This Emmy-nominated series, produced by Kevin Hart’s Hartbeat, will premiere exclusively on The Roku Channel on Friday, December 13, 2024.
A New Era for “Die Hart”
Known for its sharp wit and dynamic performances, Die Hart continues to blur the lines between action and comedy. The third season shifts its focus as Kevin Hart, playing a fictionalized version of himself, chases critical acclaim rather than blockbuster stunts. His journey takes a surprising turn when legendary filmmaker Jackson Pepper (played by J.K. Simmons) enters the picture. Instead of helping Hart achieve his lofty goals, Pepper’s chaotic involvement thrusts him and returning character Jordan King (Nathalie Emmanuel) into an unexpected adventure as fugitives.
This ambitious storyline promises to deliver the hilarity and high-stakes thrills fans have come to expect, with the added gravitas of new powerhouse cast members.
Star-Studded Additions
The new season brings together a remarkable ensemble of talent:
- Kathryn Hahn: The Emmy-nominated star known for “WandaVision” will play Jillian Avery, a celebrated Oscar-winning actress navigating her own challenges at the pinnacle of fame.
- J.K. Simmons: Simmons embodies Jackson Pepper, a commanding and unpredictable director whose larger-than-life persona sets the stage for Hart’s turbulent journey.
- Tony Cavalero: Best known for his comedic brilliance in “The Righteous Gemstones,” Cavalero takes on the role of Agent Fisher, a dedicated FBI agent with a mysterious secret.
- Anna Garcia: Garcia portrays Pearl, a starry-eyed aspiring actress determined to find her place in Pepper’s unpredictable world.
The Creative Force Behind the Series
Produced by Hartbeat, Die Hart showcases a team of accomplished creators and storytellers. Directed by Josh Ruben and written by Tripper Clancy, the series’ innovative approach combines Hartbeat’s signature humor with culturally resonant narratives. Kevin Hart, alongside an impressive roster of executive producers, ensures the series maintains its sharp edge and engaging storytelling.
