    Didn’t Eddie Murphy already try this with the Coming to America Amazon sequel and have it spectacularly fail?

      Perhaps, but have you considered the following:

        You mean Murphy or the studios? I can’t fault Murphy for taking a paycheque, but if the studios think this is going to make money then they’re likely in for a rude awakening.

          Definitely just Murphy. Likely has a producing credit and some kind of backend %. Netflix can save it.

    There was a pilot for a TV show in 2013. The show was based around Axel Foley’s son but Eddie Murphy appears in the pilot.

    The studio thought Murphy would make an appearance semi regularly but when he said no, that killed the show from ever happening.

    It’s floating around on the internet if you want to see it.

    I was wondering if Judge Reinhold and that guy with the mustache would be in it… and there they were at the very end. I might actually give this one a chance!

    That title isn’t even trying. Barely gives an F.
