New COMING 2 AMERICA Trailer Contains A Nod To Marvel's BLACK PANTHER

Amazon Prime has released a new trailer for Coming 2 America, which is set to premiere on the streaming service on March 5.

A follow-up to John Landis' 1988 comedy (by no means a classic, but it has its moments), the sequel sees Eddie Murphy reprise the role of Prince King Akeem, who returns to America when he discovers that he had a son (Jermaine Fowler) after a one-night stand with Mary (Leslie Jones) over 20 years ago.

There's some funny stuff in here, and Marvel fans should get a kick out of the mention of Black Panther's Kingdom of Wakanda.

We recently learned that a Disney+ series focusing on T'Challa's homeland is in development, with Black Panther 2 co-writer/director Ryan Coogler on board. Details are scarce, but we should have a bit more to go on soon.

Coming 2 America will once again see Murphy and costar Arsenio Hall play multiple roles (the barbershop banter was a highlight of the first movie), with Shari Headley, John Amos and the great James Earl Jones also set to return.

Wesley Snipes (Blade, Demolition Man) is on board as the villain.

What do you guys think? Do you plan on checking out Coming 2 America next month?

@Waddles - Lol.
You know...Coming To America might be the number 1 movie that when I see it on a Network Channel I go...WTF? WHY?!

Because all the good stuff is gutted.

I would also put Casino and Goodfellas on that par too!

What do you mean by no means a classic? It definitively is a classic. Doesn't make a difference if you liked it or not.

Can't wait to see it. The first film is a classic.

I'm ready for Jackson Heights' own Randy Watson to come back to the stage.

Coming to America is and will always be a classic.

This looks fun though. Wesley looks like he had a blast playing that character.

This not being rated "R" is kind of a travesty.

Coming to America is the Joe Lewis of comedies. It'll whip Trading Places a--. It's whoop Beverly Hills Cop's a--. What's that new guy's name? Will Ferrell? It'll whip all their a--es!

I wanna be so excited for this but when most comedy movies like this that gets a sequel so long after the original has been extremely disappointing.
In my opinion....
Jay And Silent Bob Reboot was bad
Bill And Ted Face The Music was bad
Zoolander 2 was bad
Zombieland 2 was bad
There’s more.....

Please please please be good!!!! Love me some Eddie and Arsenio!!!!

Plus they better bring Sam Jackson back and it would be cool if they had him be a manager at a McDowells instead of coming back to rob it again.

Man, I hope Samuel L Jackson has a cameo in this. Coming to America is one of Eddie’s best movies. Top 5 guaranteed.
