NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Stand-up comedian and Hollywood box-office hit Kevin Hart keeps the laughs coming in an illustrated middle-grade novel about a boy who has big dreams of making a blockbuster superhero film.

"Keep[s] kid readers on the edge of their seat." –Parents Magazine
Marcus is NOT happy to be stuck in after-school film class . . . until he realizes he can turn the story of the cartoon superhero he’s been drawing for years into an actual MOVIE! There’s just one problem: he has no idea what he’s doing. So he’ll need help, from his friends, his teachers, Sierra, the strong-willed classmate with creative dreams of her own, even Tyrell, the local bully who’d be a perfect movie villain if he weren’t too terrifying to talk to.
Making this movie won’t be easy. But as Marcus discovers, nothing great ever is—and if you want your dream to come true, you’ve got to put in the hustle to make it happen.
Comedy superstar Kevin Hart teams up with award-winning author Geoff Rodkey and lauded illustrator David Cooper for a hilarious, illustrated, and inspiring story about bringing your creative goals to life and never giving up, even when nothing’s going your way.

Customer Reviews
Marcus Makes a MovieSo don’t wanna be a book spoiler definitely got the book because my son likes Captain underpants. I thought it was super cool too because he is a big fan of Kevin Hart. He really enjoys reading the book reciting different things he has read. I can often catch him laughing from what he has read and even explain to me what he’s read and so I can enjoy a laugh with him. I find that he likes to go to our patio and read this particular book and just explore his imagination. So, I would say that this book is definitely a five out of five, especially since my son whom is 10 years old really does not like to read often, so I have to find books that will grasp his attention. I mean he is literally in love with the book. He’s always reading the book and for that I really do appreciate the art of this book. We will be purchasing the other books to form a collection.
