Kevin Hart plays 'Would You Rather,' talks 'What Now?' with Jimmy Fallon

Kevin Hart appeared on The Tonight Show on Tuesday, where he spoke with host Jimmy Fallon about his upcoming concert movie, "Kevin Hart: What Now?", and played a game of “Would You Rather” that had Fallon eating a bug by the end.

Kevin Hart appeared on The Tonight Show on Tuesday to speak about his upcoming concert movie, Kevin Hart: What Now?, and played a game of "Would You Rather" that had host Jimmy Fallon eating a bug by the end.

The pair kicked things off by teasing a segment that will air sometime in the future that they had shot the morning of Hart's appearance, with Fallon noting that whatever the stunt was will be "bigger than the roller coaster." That viral 2014 bit dealt with Hart's fear of roller coasters.

After some discussion about Hart's appearance on three covers of the 50th anniversary issue of Runner's World Magazine — as well as Hart's Tommy John underwear brand — the topic turned to Hart's Philadelphia-shot What Now?, which comes out Friday, Oct. 14. Featuring an action movie-style intro with celebrity appearances from folks like Don Cheadle and Halle Berry, Hart said he hopes the film will put "comedy on the same level as rock 'n' roll."

Finally, the pair moved on to the evening's game segment: "Would You Rather?" In this version, Hart and Fallon were given specific scenarios, and had to guess the audience's preference.

Topics included whether the audience would prefer to out-sing Beyoncé or out-run Usain Bolt, and whether it would be better to see the future or read people's thoughts. Ultimately, Hart came out on top.

Fallon, as punishment for losing, was forced to make his own choice between actually eating a cricket or grabbing a handful of worms. Fallon went with the cricket.
