Coming To America is one of my favorite movies and I have got to be honest, I am a little skeptical about the sequel, but I am hoping that its done well!
According to TMZ:
Eddie Murphy is totally down for casting real Africans in his “Coming to America” sequel … and it sounds like he’s got one very funny one in mind.
We got Eddie as he was leaving E Baldi Tuesday in Bev Hills, and asked him about the highly anticipated movie … which started pre-production last month. Outside of Eddie, Arsenio Hall and Shari Headley (Lisa McDowell) … little is known about who’s co-starring in the film.
Akon, who grew up in Senegal, recently told us Eddie should be hiring real deal African actors for the flick, and we brought that suggestion right to the man himself. Good news for Africans, and GREAT news for Michael Blackson — Eddie’s interested!!!
