Kevin Hart: 'The sky's the limit for me'

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 11 (UPI) -- Kevin Hart, who was recently honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, knows 2016 is his biggest year yet, but he doesn't feel it's his biggest ever.

"The sky's the limit for me," Hart said in an interview with Variety. "I really believe that, and at this point feel I'm basically competing with myself. By that I mean that no one can push me harder than I push myself. I set my own bar and I constantly raise that bar to be higher and higher."

Hart released four movies this year, Ride Along 2, Central Intelligence, The Secret Life of Pets, and his stand-up film, Kevin Hart: What Now? which is headed to theaters on Oct. 14.

He also signed on for the new Jumanji film, a role in the animated Captain Underpants, The Intouchables, and another season of Real Husbands of Hollywood.

"Yeah," Hart said, "I'm pretty busy."

He's hoping it will stay that way.

"Nothing happens overnight, and if a road has no bumps and rocks, you don't get a story," he said. "I feel that God put me through a lot in the beginning to prepare me for what was going to come later. And now I'm really prepared and equipped to deal with everything I want to do."
