Kevin Hart stars in the upcoming Borderlands movie as the no-nonsense, physically imposing soldier Roland, and while the casting may have caught those familiar with the games off-guard, it actually makes sense when considering a key element of hte games. While some Borderlands character castings, like Jack Black's Claptrap, satisfy expectations, other choices are more confounding upon a first-time viewing of the trailer. Nevertheless, Hart's casting as Roland is actually brilliant, and it subtly highlights the live-action adaptation's attention to detail regarding its handling of the material.
