When did Eddie Murphy fall off? And why?

[GnauzBookOfRhymes]

Breh, he's been killing it in the industry for 40 years.

Imagine 40 years of being a celebrity.

Maybe he's just chilln and has basically decided that he's done enough and wants to just enjoy his money/family for the last few decades of life?

He's been "killing it" since Pluto Nash?

I wonder if this the first movie where an actor plays multiple roles beyond two.i.e. the basic twin spilt personality roles..

Sellers in Strangelove

Just like Will Smith, he'll have a run of bad or unpopular movies then come back with a hammer. Will's comeback is Gemini Man. Eddie's will be this Dolemite movie I believe.

fixed

In between those years......In Living Colour/ Def Comedy Jam changed comedy

Well for one he’s old now


You really can’t cast him as a main anymore
With that logic Tom Hanks fell off too


But nah Eddie is good , norbit was underrated as hell man

Norbit really doesn’t get the love it deserves

Once he got the shrek check it was a wrap. He said he did 2 and 3 just for fun...oh and a fat ass check again.

Kevin Hart spoke about a dinner he had with a bunch of other comedians and Eddie Murphy.
Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle...a lot of guys were there. And they were all in awe of Eddie the entire time.

Among people in that world, Eddie is the godfather, so to speak.
There is no "falling off" when you are at that level.

Had an all-time great box office run and then started doing terrible movies like Pluto Nash & The Haunted Mansion because he was getting paid like 20 million a film so I understand why he would take certain roles

People get old man

I don’t think he ever really fell off. He just stopped working as much. I think he said it best when he was doing the press tour from Dreamgirls.

“people keep asking me how it feels to be back? Back from where? The Bank? The last movie I made was Shrek”

came in to say this

Eddie will always be look at as the GOAT for comedians since Richard Pryor is gone and Eddie was next in line

Eddie as also always look out for up and coming comedians
