Kevin Hart-starrer Lift gets new release date

Kevin Hart's Lift, the upcoming heist comedy film from Netflix, has postponed its premiere date. Helmed by Gary Gray, the film will now premiere on January 12, 2024, instead of August 25, 2023. 

Written by Dan Kunka, Lift sees Hart playing a master thief who is wooed by his ex-girlfriend and the FBI to pull off an impossible heist with his international crew on a 777 flight flying from London to Zurich.

Lift is produced by Simon Kinberg and Audrey Chon for Genre Pictures, Matt Reeves and Adam Kassan for 6th & Idaho, and Hart and Brian Smiley for HartBeat Productions.

Kevin Hart was last seen in Netflix's Me Time. Apart from Lift, he has Back on the Strip, and Borderlands in the pipeline. Meanwhile, Gray is coming off Straight Outta Compton, The Fate of the Furious and Men in Black: International. He will next direct the action film Muscle with Vin Diesel.
