First Look: Coming 2 America Trailer

Coming 2 America is set to be released on Amazon Prime Video on March 5, 2021. Until then, we’ll have to enjoy this sneak peak of Zamunda and more.

Jermaine Fowler (“Sorry To Bother You”) is cast as Akeem’s son, who like his father has come to America to find a bride. But let’s just look at the trailer to see what clues we can find.

“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.
