Produced in partnership with DoorDash, the companion short film follows Kam Patterson's character from 'Livestream From Hell' and premieres on LOL Network and Patterson's YouTube channels.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Hartbeat, the global comedy company founded by Kevin Hart, today premiered Dash of a Lifetime, an original short film set in the world of Livestream From Hell. The short is available now on LOL Network and Kam Patterson's YouTube channels, with promotional support across LOL Network, Hartbeat, Kam Patterson and DoorDash social channels. Watch "Dash of a Lifetime"
Livestream From Hell made its streaming premiere on Prime Video on Wednesday, September 30, starring Kevin Hart, streamer Kai Cenat and comedian Druski in a horror-comedy built inside a livestream that goes wrong. The concept grew out of a livestream featuring Hart, Cenat and Druski that connected with fans in real time and prompted audiences to ask for the moment to become a movie. Hartbeat developed that response into a film bringing together three of the largest audiences in comedy and livestream culture.
DoorDash is integrated directly into the storyline through comedian and Saturday Night Live cast member Kam Patterson, who plays a Dasher whose deliveries to the mansion pull him into the events of the night. Rather than a traditional brand placement, DoorDash has a character with an active role in the plot, one whose story then continues into a second film.
Dash of a Lifetime follows the same character through the same night from the other side of the door. It was produced by Hartbeat's studio in partnership with DoorDash, the brand that connects consumers to the best of their neighborhoods, gives people flexible ways to earn, and empowers local businesses to grow. The companion film extends that character's story while reflecting DoorDash's broader strategy of co-creating entertainment with talent and fandoms and finding authentic ways to show up in culture.
"We took a story born from a live moment between Kevin, Kai, Druski and their fans, invited DoorDash into that world through a character, cast a comedian we believe in, and then gave that character somewhere to live after the credits. DoorDash is a dream partner because it already connects communities every day, and Hartbeat and LOL have the production, distribution and direct audience access to carry that story into a second window across our own channels. Hartbeat was built to bring people together through comedy, and that direct relationship with our audience allows us to give stories a home, extend their life and continue building community around them," said Jeff Clanagan, President and Chief Distribution Officer, Hartbeat.
Patterson joined the cast of Saturday Night Live in 2025 after breaking out on the Kill Tony podcast and co-starred opposite Hart in the Netflix comedy 72 Hours earlier this year.
Livestream From Hell is directed by David Janoff and produced by Hartbeat, 4Lifers Entertainment and OBB Pictures. The feature is available to stream on Prime Video on September 30 in the U.S. at no additional cost with a Prime membership.
Dash of a Lifetime is 13 minutes and is available now on LOL Network and Kam Patterson's YouTube channels, with the former having 5.5 million subscribers.
"DoorDash brings customers, Dashers and local businesses together every day, so a story rooted in comedy, culture and community felt like a natural way for us to invite people into our world," said Gina Igwe, Vice President of Brand, Creative and Consumer Marketing at DoorDash. "We loved building a real character with Hartbeat and putting a Dasher in the center of the story. 'Dash of a Lifetime' gave us a way to celebrate the people who show up for customers every day while making something that feels at home in a world fans already love."
