The “Jumanji: The Next Level” star was honored with a Hand and Footprint Ceremony at the famed TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Tuesday, and took to Instagram after the fact to share the momentous occasion with the world.
“Words can’t explain my emotion right now...2019 has been a hell of a year for me. I appreciate the Ups & the downs...to be honest I appreciate the downs so f--king much because they help build character,” Hart, 40, began the lengthy caption.
