Eddie Murphy

After a day’s work, it’s no surprise many of us just want to stay at home and relax, maybe watch a movie while we’re at it. Of course, there are many genres to choose from; some of us might be in the mood for action-packed films, others probably want something more terrifying from the horror genre. For this page, though, let’s take a look at a star well-known for his comedic prowess.

A fascination for something often begins with inspiration. For Eddie Murphy, this would be comedian Richard Pryor, among other icons in the scene. With a strong sense of motivation fueling his metaphorical gas tank, it’s no surprise he eventually made it big. After his stint on Saturday Night Live introduced him to a broader audience, the comedian then found his way into movies. Since then, Eddie has become most known for his work in films such as Coming to America, Dr. Dolittle, Beverly Hills Cop, and Dolemite Is My Name.
