Eddie Murphy 'Coming to America'

Actor/comedian Eddie Murphy took to his personal Twitter account late Wednesday night to tweet out something usual for him.

With his account usually full of re-tweets, this time Murphy posted something that got the Internet buzzing, a possible sequel to the beloved Coming to America.

Along with the caption, “Coming to America sequel?” a photo of actress Vanessa Bell Calloway as Imani Izzi in her iconic gold dress is attached.

Along with Murphy and Calloway, the 1988 classic also starred Arsenio Hall.

Check out a sampling of the reactions below. In other movie news, Warner Bros. state they are working to reboot The Matrix with Michael B. Jordan as the next Neo.

[Poetical Poltergeist]

As much as I would like this I can't condone. Eddie done fell off so hard I doubt I would enjoy it.

 

[CEITEDMOFO]

if he could get the right people involved it could turn out good.

 

[Maxine Shaw]

How would you do a sequel?

He comes back to America again?

Probably his seed. He would be James Earl Jones replacement.

Or an original idea, maybe?

How 'bout that since you've been steadily doing not much for close to a decade.

Ironically, I watched it this weekend and thought "damn there's a really good sequel here" but then I thought you'd have to get john landis back and Eddie back in give a fukk mode. Don't know if either of those things would happen again so yeah maybe Eddie should keep on that "comeback" he's been doing since the beginning of the decade

It's not going to ruin anything. Coming to America will still be funny even if the sequel isnt.
