Movie Night is ahead on ABC's Dancing With the Stars and the reality series is bringing in a big movie star for the night: Kevin Hart.

It was announced during Tuesday night's results show that Hart would be filling in for judge Len Goodman on Monday, Sept. 29. The Ride Along actor has accepted the gig to judge during Movie Night, which features the celebrities dancing to their favorite songs from the movies.
Mostly known for his comedy, Hart will expectedly bring a more light-hearted tone than the more straight-laced Goodman. He will be joining regular judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Julianne Hough.

The competition was whittled down to 11 celebrities Tuesday night after Tavis Smiley and his partner Sharna Burgess were eliminated. Smiley and Burgess were among several pairs who received a 28 out of 40 score Monday night, though he did not have the lowest judges score.
Michael Waltrip and partner Emma Slater were at the bottom of the leaderboard after Monday night's show, scoring a mere 24 out of 40. Waltrip was the last celebrity announced as safe, though host Tom Bergeron clarified that he was not necessarily in the Bottom 2.
The pattern of the lowest scoring celebrity staying on over a higher scoring celebrity continues. Betsey Johnson and Tony Dovolani received the lowest score of the first night though they managed to stay on the show from America's vote over Olympian Lolo Jones and Keo Motsepe.
Dancing With the Stars airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
