Speaking on his role in 'True Story', Hart told Entertainment Weekly: "It's a thriller; it's like you've never seen me before. We wanted to raise the level of curiosity, like, 'What is Kevin trying to say? Is he playing himself?'

"We never refer to the character by name, just Kid. And Kid's life kind of parallels mine to a certain degree, and then it's exaggerated in some places."

"I don't know if you can handle the drama. When I come, I come correct. We're not coming to pull punches. So if you want to go for it, then I want to give you my support," Snipes added.

The seven-episode series also stars Theo Rossi, William Catlett, Abbey Paige, Michael James Bell, Avery Kidd Waddell and Emmanuel Kabongo.
