The Korean box office hit, which will be adapted by Tracy Oliver, follows a team of cops who turns a diner into a big hit with their fried chicken recipes while going undercover to bust a drug gang.

AceShowbiz - Kevin Hart and "Girls Trip" screenwriter Tracy Oliver are developing an English-language remake of Korean box office hit "Extreme Job".

The film became the highest grossing movie in Korean box office history earlier this year, and now Hart is slated to star in the Hollywood remake, which Oliver is adapting.

The film revolves around a team of undercover cops who become cooks in a fried chicken restaurant as they spy on a gang, only to turn the diner into a big hit with their recipes.

It's not Hart's first attempt to turn a Korean movie hit into a Hollywood hit - he is also working on an English-language remake of 2011 film "Sunny".
