Kevin Hart has announced a series of UK dates as part of his jumbo 'Irresponsible' tour taking him across the world.

Now a Hollywood star, Hart first cut his teeth in the comedy circuit, winning several amateur comedy competitions at club in the US.

His big break was in a one-series TV series Undeclared. Despite is short run Hart soon landed other roles, most recently Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.

However, proving he has not forgotten his comedy routes, Hart is back on tour with a pit-stop at Birmingham Arena.

It is one of 100 stops he will make on his widely successful and massively hysterical The Kevin Hart Irresponsible Tour.

It is named so he pokes fun at himself after a sex tape was exposed showing him and a woman getting close in Las Vegas.

In the trailer for the upcoming comedy tour, his makes reference to the scandal.

"Give me one example of me being irresponsible," Kevin says in the promo, to five other versions of himself.

"Boy, we talking about you in that car with that girl in Miami." Where the lead Kevin responds: "I don't even know who she is!"

The Irresponsible Tour will hit the UK later this year

Hart's last multi-city domestic and international What Now comedy tour sold out large venues all over the world, including being the first comedian to sell out an NFL stadium, selling more than 50,000 tickets in one show at Lincoln Financial Field.

Internationally, he sold out over a dozen arenas in the European market, selling more than 150,000 tickets, and sold out arenas across Australia, selling 100,000 tickets.
