AceShowbiz - Kevin Hart nearly got hit by a passenger train in downtown Minneapolis, where he is attending Super Bowl LII. The 38-year-old actor/comedian was leaving the Cowboy Jack's restaurant on Friday, February 2 when a TMZ cameraman caught up with him to ask about a possible reboot of the TV sitcom "Martin".
As he walked with his entourage around him, Kevin said that it would be "dope" and that Martin Lawrence's a "legend." On his way to an awaiting SUV, the "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" actor stopped in the middle of the train tracks to continue discussing the potential reboot, not realizing that a train was coming straight for him.
Neither the cameraman nor Kevin's bodyguards noticed the light rail train coming down the tracks. But thank goodness, the conductor blew the horn to let them know that the train was coming closer behind them. The actor's bodyguards were quick to react, pushing him into his car and speeding from the scene.
Though Kevin never appeared on the show, he said he fully supports a "Martin" revival. The father of three worked together with Martin on "Death at a Funeral (2010)". In August, they both performed at "Def Comedy Jam 25", which was released on Netflix last fall.
There have long been rumors about a revival of Martin Lawrence's eponymous series, which originally ran from 1992 to 1997. On Thursday, TMZ caught up with Martin, who was having lunch with his co-stars Tisha Campbell (Regina "Gina" Waters-Payne) and Tichina Arnold (Pamela "Pam" James) in Burbank.
Asked if there are plans for a reboot, Martin, who played Martin Payne on the show, replied, "Never say never." Tichina added, "Within life there's always new beginnings and there's always change and there's always new plateaus, so we'll see what's happening." Tisha chimed in and laughed, "We can't tell y'all s**t."
