Eddie Murphy’s Coming To America 2 has added more star power to the highly anticipated sequel.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Tracy Morgan has landed a role in the film. The former Saturday Night Live star joins a list of new cast members that includes Wesley Snipes, Leslie Jones and If Beale Street Could Talk’s KiKi Layne.
Coming To America 2 tells the story of Prince Akeem (Murphy) — on the verge of becoming Zamunda’s king — discovering he has a son named Lavelle in America. Jones plays Lavelle’s mother, who had a one-night stand with Akeem. Morgan portrays her brother.
Snipes has been cast as General Izzi, who rules a neighboring nation to Zamunda. Layne plays Akeem’s daughter.
Although the sequel will have plenty of newcomers, Coming To America fans will also get to see a few familiar faces. Arsenio Hall, James Earl Jones and Shari Headley are all set to reprise their roles from the original film, which was released in 1988.
Production for Coming To America 2 is scheduled to begin later this month. The movie is currently scheduled to debut on December 18, 2020.

Tracy Morgan is not funny. He might have been back in the day when he was on the come-up, but he’s just a Hollyweird clown now. The bar for comedy is lower than its ever been. His stand-up special was a disaster.
He is one of the funniest people alive
Opinions are like a**holes everybody has one
First one was a fucking classic. Pleeeez don’t fuck up with the sequel. Its almost impossible to.
Tracy is fun when he doesn’t say anything he’s body language is enough to make you laugh!!
Tracy Morgan is funny looking and a fucking drooling retard.
Prince Akeem must have been either drugged or highly intoxicated to have had sex with Leslie Jones’ character. She looks like the chick Marlon Wayans smashed in Mo Money when he was drunk so that’s the only way I could see that going down
yes! fuck yes!!
