‘Coming 2 America’ trailer: Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall back for another adventure
It’s been 33 years since audiences watched crown prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) leave his home country of Zamunda in search of independence and an American wife in the original Coming to America movie.

This time around, with Jaffe in poor health, Akeem is tasked with providing a male heir to continue his family’s legacy. His wife, Coming to America‘s Lisa (Shari Headley) has given birth to three daughters, who apparently can’t be the heir. (Any plot predictions here, anyone?)
