True Story: Kevin Hart, Wesley Snipes to play brothers in the Netflix series

Kevin Hart and Wesley Snipes have been roped in to play brothers in a new upcoming limited Netflix series titled True Story.

While Hart recently released his Netflix standup special Kevin Hart: Zero F**ks Given, Snipes will appear in Eddie Murphy's upcoming Coming to America sequel. 

According to Collider, the actors will co-star as brothers in True Story, an upcoming eight-episode Netflix limited series. 

True Story reportedly follows Kid (Hart) as a famous comedian whose tour takes him to his hometown of Philadelphia. There, he encounters his older brother Carlton (Snipes), whose unpredictable behavior becomes a matter of life and death. Notably, Philadelphia is also the hometown of Hart.

Watchmen director Stephen Williams is set to direct the first four episodes, while Hanelle Culpepper (Star Trek: Picard) will be helming the final four.
