Reigning over the kingdom of Zamunda, the character played by Eddie Murphy will return to New York with his faithful sidekick Semmi (Arsenio Hall), in order to find his son there, whose existence he has just learned. Such is the pitch of “A Prince in New York 2”, which will arrive on Prime Video on March 5, 2021, failing a theatrical release, thirty-three years after the original 1988 film directed by John Landis.
