“The prince seeks a son”, here is the trailer for the sequel with Eddie Murphy

No longer a wife, but a son. Akeem, the bachelor prince whose Eddie Murphy gave birth in 1988, has transformed. He has grown. And, now close to becoming king of the kingdom of Zamunda, he received the order to return to America, to look for a son he has never been a father to. The plot of The prince is looking for a son it does not differ much from the one made three decades ago, in the most famous The prince seeks a wife. Yet, looking at the images of the sequel, the first released by Amazon, a different air seems to be able to breathe.

Eddie Murphy, once again playing the African prince, seems to have had to adapt to times dominated by haste, by fashions, by the need to satisfy the needs of a bulimic market, intercepting – where possible – the favor of the young public, now used to bombing of digital.

In the frenzy of having to publish new content, many and always, the original ideas have ended up being swallowed up by the return of the old, “embellished” so that it can pass for new. Between revival and reboot, including sequels for which the need was not felt at all, it is also over The prince seeks a wife, whose second chapter – inevitably son of the new millennium – will debut on Amazon Prime Video on March 5.
