Hart, known for starring in Jumanji series and The Upside, will essay the role of Roland, a skilled ex-soldier-turned-mercenary. “I’m thrilled to be working with Kevin. Borderlands is a different kind of role for him, and we are excited to thrill audiences with a side of Kevin they’ve never seen before. He’s going to be an amazing Roland,” Roth said. The project will be produced by Avi Arad and Ari Arad are producing the project through their Arad Productions. Erik Feig will produce for Picturestart.
