One Coming 2 America Star Admits He Spent Most Of His Audition Talking About Barbecue

It’s still hard to believe that Coming 2 America is finally a reality, as many fans were unsure if a sequel to Eddie Murphy’s hit 1988 film would ever be made. But lo and behold, not only are fans getting a sequel, but they’ll even get to see most of the original actors reprise their roles. Of course, the Craig Brewer-helmed comedy will also feature some new faces, including up-and-coming star Jermaine Fowler. Landing the role of Prince Akeem’s son, Lavelle, was a dream come true for the actor, and he’s still in disbelief, especially since he recently revealed that he spent most of his audition talking about barbecue.
