It’s official, Tracy Morgan has joined the cast of Coming To America 2. He is one of the new castmembers in the return of the Eddie Murphy–Arsenio Hall comedy alongside Wesley Snipes, Lesley Jones, Rick Ross, and Kiki Layne.
In the sequel, Akeem (Murphy) is set to become King of Zamunda but discovers he has a son he never knew about in America – a street-savvy Queens native named Lavelle. Honoring his father’s dying wish to groom this son as the crown prince, Akeem and Semmi (Arsenio Hall) set off to America to meet the unlikely heir.
