  • 'Coming 2 America' To Film In Atlanta

    ‘Coming 2 America’ To Film In Atlanta

    3 Min Read

    Prince Akeem is coming to Peachtree. The long-awaited sequel to “Coming to America” will film in Atlanta, according to news reports.

    Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall have signed on for leading roles so far. Craig Brewer (“Hustle & Flow) is attached to the project as director.

    Jermaine Fowler (“Sorry To Bother You”) has been cast as a lead, fueling speculation that he will be Akeem’s son.

    ‘Coming to America 2’ plans to film in Atlanta

    “Coming to America 2” or “Coming 2 America,” as the movie is being called, has been slated for a release date in August 2020.

    The plot of the movie is said to center on Akeem coming back to America after learning that he has a long-lost son. That son would be the heir to the throne in Zamunda, the African kingdom.

    When Akeem finds his son, he is barely making it in Queens. Early reports are that comedian Dave Chappelle is in talks to join the project as well.

    Success of original ‘Coming to America’

    The original film  was released in the United States on June 29, 1988. It debuted at #1, taking in $28.4 million at the box office in its opening weekend.

    “Coming to America” would go on to earn $228 million worldwide.

    With Murphy playing a variety of roles, the film garnered two Oscar nominations, one for makeup and the other for costume design.

    Here are all the barbershop scenes in ‘Coming to America’

    Atlanta has become a movie mecca in recent years and Georgia has been a favorite location for TV productions since the state instituted generous tax breaks for film companies that agree to shoot locally. Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.

    With more than 700 movie and TV projects just in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.
    There are so many movies filmed in Atlanta these days that it’s hard to keep up with it all. That’s why I suggest you subscribe to AtlantaFi.com to get all the freshest movie casting calls, celeb sightings and Atlanta happenings delivered to your inbox.

    • Best day to return: Tuesday, 6 a.m.
    • Worst day to return:  Sunday, 4 p.m.

Our advice to drivers is to avoid the morning and evening commuting times or plan alternate routes.”
