The Coming 2 America sequel is coming out this Friday on Amazon Video and it’s one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
The stars of the first movie, Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall are back for the sequel and have been on a press tour promoting the movie.
While on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Eddie detailed how they were forced to put Louie Anderson, who worked at McDowels, in the first movie because they were forced to give a white person a role in it saying
“I love Louie but I think we were forced to put Louie in it,”
“No, I think we were forced to put a White person.”
“Yeah, Paramount was like…because the whole cast was Black and this was back in the 80s, so it was like ‘We have to have a White person, there has to be a White person in the movie!'” Murphy added. “[We were like] ‘What?’ So, who is the funniest white guy around right now? And then Louie, we knew him and was cool with him, so that’s how Louie got in the movie.”
I wish I can say I’m surprised but I’m not.
