Kevin Hart and Will Smith are set to star in and produce the remake of John Hughes' Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987). The original film starred Steve Martin and the late John Candy.

Aeysha Carr has penned the script of the upcoming film, which is said to be a modern interpretation of the original. The comedy-drama revolves around a duo, who are forced to get along amid a series of misadventures during their journey to home for Thanksgiving. Carr is popular for her works in Brooklyn 99 and Hulu's Woke.

Meanwhile, Hart is also prepping to start production on Man From Toronto and has completed the production of Sony's Fatherhood, which is set for release in April 2021. Smith, on the other hand, is looking forward to the release of Warner Bros'  King Richard about Richard Williams, the father of tennis players Venus and Serena Williams.
