Coming to America was one of the key projects in Eddie Murphy’s career. Just over 30 years after the original film, the comedian finally returns for a sequel, which has just released its first official teaser trailer.

Subsequently, Prince Akeem returns to New York after many years, now as king of the fictional Zamunda, a thriving African nation. He needs to find young Lavelle, Jermaine Fowler, an heir he never knew he had.
