Eddie Murphy Is Bringing Eddie Murphy Back

Eddie Murphy at the Shanri-La Hotel in Toronto, where he was in town for the Toronto International Film Festival, Sept. 8, 2019. Murphy — who is returning to host "Saturday Night Live," to standup comedy and to the big screen in "Dolemite Is My Name” and a sequel to "Coming to America" — views his new projects as a career bookend.
