More than 30 years after the original “Coming to America,” Eddie Murphy has finally taken the crown as King Akeem in the long-awaited sequel “Coming 2 America,” and boy is he happy to be back in New York.
In a set of new images released for the film, we see the newly crowned Akeem back in Queens donning a New York Mets jacket and all sorts of tourist memorabilia, as well as revisiting his old haunts like the barbershop alongside Arsenio Hall, who reprises his role as Akeem’s trusted confidante Semmi.
We also get first looks at James Earl Jones, Shari Headley and Garcelle Beauvais returning for the sequel.
