...why is there a borderlands movie?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Fair question. Also, why do I already know that Kevin Hart's character in this movie will be indistinguishable from Kevin Hart in any other movie?

If Hart was willing to be Roland instead of Kevin Hart I'd consider it, but casting a comedian for the role is honestly kind of suspect regardless.

What, you don't think people would believe a serious black man as the team leader? What was the thinking here, exactly?

The thinking was that Kevin Hart movies are cheap to make (he probably only needed a week on set if that ) and generally profitable, so this would be too. I think that's about it .
