In November, online casinos across the globe will see actor and comedian Kevin Hart star, as the host, on select Pragmatic Play live casino games.
The Jumanji, Ride Along and Central Intelligence star will take the reins on November 6 and 7. Players can engage with Hart in real-time across both days - offering an all-new way for fans to interact with one of the nation's best-known celebrities.
Although it has not yet been revealed which live casino rooms Hart will be hosting, Pragmatic Play confirmed that the 47-year-old will lead the action in four sessions spanning 'fan favorite' titles. The software provider will lift the lid on specific featured rooms during the event itself.
As such, players can discover Hart's live casino rooms by tuning in each day.
Pragmatic Play and Hart eagerly anticipate November's multi-day event
In a statement, Kevin Hart promised to bring the same high-octane energy fans have become accustomed to, throughout his time as a live casino croupier,
"When the opportunity to host some of Pragmatic Play's biggest live casino games came up, I jumped at the opportunity," explained Hart. "I've seen what they've got planned and let me tell you; they don't do things small. I'm bringing the Kevin energy to Pragmatic Play. November can't get here fast enough. Let's play!"
Pragmatic Play Chief Operating Officer, Irina Cornides, likened Hart's ability to capture attention to that of a Greek God - highlighting the actor's humor as a core touchpoint for this collaboration,
"Kevin Hart needs no introduction, and we are absolutely thrilled to welcome him into the studio. We thought Zeus knew how to command a room, but Kevin Hart hosting some of our biggest titles? Now that's a whole new level of entertainment you won't want to miss!
"This collaboration is all about creating a truly memorable entertainment experience. We know Kevin will bring his signature wit and personality to the table, and we can't wait to deliver an unforgettable experience for our operator partners and their players."
Promotions to roll out before and during Hart-hosted rooms
In addition to the event itself, Pragmatic Play presented plans to distribute "major" promotions prior to Hart's first hosting session. According to the provider, these promotions will offer increased opportunities to land free chips that may be spent during games hosted by Hart.
One such program begins in October, when Pragmatic Play will open an exclusive prize pool giveaway for players registered with partnered platforms.
Further promotions are scheduled to drop once Hart steps into frame - with random cash prizes to be awarded to participating players.
Hart continues strong relationship with iGaming
This upcoming event marks an inaugural partnership between Pragmatic Play and Kevin Hart, but it is not the first time that the actor has served as a representative for an iGaming campaign.
Perhaps most noteworthy is his ambassadorial role with DraftKings; since 2022, Hart has regularly appeared across platform advertisements, banners and launches.
One striking example came in 2023, when the Philadelphia-native assisted DraftKings' Hart Race Hold'em poker-style product launch in New Jersey.
Now, by bringing eccentric hosting talents to the live casino floor, Hart is slated to deepen his already firm ties with the iGaming market in an all-new format.
