Kevin Hart battles ‘tummy issues’ after slamming three coffees before a long day of interviews

Dwayne Johnson has shared an embarrassing video of Kevin Hart who very nearly had a faecal mishap during some interviews.

Kevin Hart very nearly suffered a faecal mishap during a press day in Mexico.

The comedian had three espresso’s before starting a long day of on-camera interviews alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to promote Jumanji: The Next Level.

But after just a couple of interviews, the coffees hit and wreaked havoc with Hart’s stomach.

In a hilarious montage video posted to Instagram, Hart is shown telling Johnson, “I gotta fart, I gotta poot,” before walking off set to pass some wind.

The relief was only temporary though, and Hart is later heard saying, “We gotta address this. This may be a full-fledged sh*t situation”.

Johnson did his best to keep the interviews on track, but at one stage Hart was almost doubled over as he attempted to keep his wind at bay.

The comedian eventually failed though and had to awkwardly apologise to both Johnson and the interviewer for letting one rip mid-chat.

“Oh excuse me, that’s a poot (a polite word for a fart),” Hart said as he waved the fumes away.

“He has a tummy issue,” his co-star explained to the journalist.

Johnson shared the video of Hart’s close call on Instagram with the caption: “I had no idea how bad Kev’s stomach got after slamming three cups back to back – until I looked and saw him slumped over while we talked to journalists for our Jumanji press junket.

“Then the smell hit me. Like the pro he is, he finished all our press. Then had to change his pants.”

Jumanji: The Next Level is the sequel to 2017’s Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Nick Jonas, Awkwafina, Danny Glover and Danny DeVito.

It hits cinemas in Australia on December 26.
