Very Happy To Be Here: The Best (And Funniest) Reactions To “Coming 2 America” First Look Photos
FINALLY!
By now, you’ve probably seen the dazzling array of first look photos from highly anticipated movie-of-the-moment “Coming 2 America” set to exclusively release on Prime Video March 5th, 2021.
The star-studded sequel stars Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, Jermaine Fowler, Leslie Jones, Tracy Morgan, KiKi Layne, Shari Headley, with Wesley Snipes and James Earl Jones. Also starring John Amos, Teyana Taylor, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Paul Bates, Nomzamo Mbatha, Bella Murphy.
Yep, literally everybody.
Entertainment Weekly shared several of the first production stills, along with an exclusive interview with Craig Brewer.
Itâs 30 years later and Prince Akeem is preparing for life as a king… Thereâs trouble on the horizon with a neighboring country because of something Akeem did or did not do in the first movie.
And he finds out that he has a son in America that he did not know he had. He has three daughters with Lisa (Headley) and now thereâs this blended family that is happening. Prince Akeem now needs to be a king and have children of his own and find out how to rule his kingdom with these old laws. Heâs got some problems heâs got to figure out and heâs got a little bit more depth in this particular one.
According to EW, Jermaine Fowler plays Akeem’s newly discovered side seed and Leslie Jones plays his mom.
Brewer also opened up about witnessing on-set moments between Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall back in the old familiar barbershop.
Kenya Barris is one of the most powerful men in entertainment, and weâre sitting there on set and when Eddie and Arsenio walked into the barbershop as the old barbershop characters, we giggled like school children. [Laughs] We just dropped all sense of maturity and decorum. It was like, âCan you believe that we are doing this? Can you believe weâre at the barbershop? Thereâs Clarence [Murphy] for Godâs sake!â And it was just infectious.
The crew grew up on Coming to America so theyâre trying to be professional but theyâre just trying to bite their cheeks so they donât smile the whole time. And youâve got to remember that Eddie and Arsenio havenât done this in more than 30 years, and now theyâre just cracking jokes and having a blast â and this is even after theyâve been in eight hours of makeup.
