The ending of the new Prime Video comedy-action movie Die Hart: The Movie explained

What was Ron Wilcox's training school all about?

The Prime Video movie, Die Hart: The Movie, revolved around a fictional version of fan-favorite comedian and actor Kevin Hart and his desire to become a leading man and action star in Hollywood. Just like in real life, Hart was an established comic actor in the movie. He was known to be a sidekick to the leading men in the film industry, specifically Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock.

After one of his interviews - where he reacted harshly to his reputation of being a comic relief and a sidekick in movies - went viral, a renowned action movie director named Claude Van De Velde offered him a lead role in an action movie. It was a golden opportunity for Hart to prove to the world that he was more than just a comic sidekick and was a real action hero.

However, to be in that particular movie, he had to train at a special training school run by a man named Ron Wilcox. The director told him that all of Hollywood's veteran action stars were former trainees of the school. Kevin Hart accepted the offer and began his training at Wilcox's school.

However, later on in the movie, it was revealed that the school was covered with hidden cameras as it was not a real school but a film set for Claude Van De Velde's new action movie. He hid the facts from Kevin in order to make the movie as realistic as possible.


Was Kevin Hart able to become a lead action hero?

Unaware of what was going on, Kevin Hart kept trying his best to overcome his fears and accept all the challenges that were coming his way. Another actress, Jordan King, joined him in training. In reality, she was cast against Hart in the movie as the leading lady.

Despite several obstacles on his way, Hart did not give up. When he thought that Jordan and his life were in real danger, he found an inner strength and motivation within himself and channelized that to make all the moves that a proper action hero would do.

At the very end of the movie, when Jordan was shot with a fake gun, but he thought it was real, Hart even managed to overcome his fear of heights and jumped a great length to save her. Thus, without knowing, Hart completed filming an exhilarating action movie and became a real action hero in Hollywood.
