Eddie Murphy dropped the first trailer for his much-anticipated comedy film Dolemite Is My Name. Murphy heads a star-studded cast of bold name Black comedians and rappers from the past and present.
The top heavy cast includes Wesley Snipes, Keegan-Michael Key, Mike Epps, Snoop Dogg, Tasha Smith, Luenell, and a barely recognizable Tip “TI” Harris.
Dolemite Is My Name follows the life of X-rated comedian Rudy Ray Moore, whose bootleg adult comedy albums helped fund his first feature length blaxploitation film Dolemite.
Snoop Dogg plays another blaxploitation film legend, the late actor D’Urville Martin.
Dolemite Is My Name will stream on Netflix before hitting theaters this fall.

I can’t wait. love me some Eddie Murphy
Mee too … we need this ret now …… !!!!!
I mean….Eddie is one of my fav comedians and all but ummmmmm…..he sounds NUFFIN like Rudy Ray Moore….Rudys voice was POWERFUL and a bit raspy
I definitely will be check’n this out!!!
Love you Eddie. I will be watching no doubt. You are a whole ass LEGEND sir.
Especially since Whitney & Eddie used to date at one point in time…
Whitney going in. Look at her mama’s face in the background! Lmao!
I love Keegan Michael Key. He is stewpid as a mug!!!!! ?
Sandra! We getting an update on the NCAA and Rich Paul.
“… will stream on Netflix before hitting theaters this fall..” – will one of the smart people on this thang here explain this sentence to the civilians?
I need to know whose paying for $15 popcorn and $11 fountain drinks and $28 Twizzlers if you can watch the movie from home… for free?
So the VA hospital was shut down in Chicago and another shooter is in custody. Peace yall it’s time for my henn
Bout time ??
I’m looking forward to this!
Predicting this is his come back and it’s going to be a big hit. We met Mr. Rudy Ray Moore he was a gentleman. The younger generation needs to know about him because I think he was a genius so creative.
I love Eddie and Charlie(RIP)
Wonder if he’s going to do signifiying monkey?
I was sworn to secrecy about this movie with having to sign an NDA. I’m glad it’s FINALLY seeing the light of day after viewing a unedited version.
Eddie(whom I worked with in a few projects) is my ALL TIME favorite comedian. He deserves an Oscar which he should have gotten for his magnificent role in ‘Dreamgirls’. Here is his chance again, he put his heart & soul in this movie. Along with Wesley Snipes,T.I.,Chris Rock,Tituss Burgess,Mike Epps,Luenell, Keegan-Michael Key & Craig Robinson.
Is it me? Or is every black male comedian and rapper in this movie? I was watching the trailer and saw more cameos and celebs, it was disrupting my attention id’ing the names.
I don’t think Netflix is releasing it to theater. I think this is straight to Netflix; right? that disqualifies him for an Oscar. Why is every black comedian (exc. Chappell) in this movie?
WHAT? I’m in Chicago and there’s nothing on the news.
I only go to the free screenings. I can’t afford theater costs. But it doesn’t make sense that Netflix would stream first and then go to theaters; that’s not right?
“I think this is straight to Netflix; right? ”
I saw it in a private movie theater. Some movies have a dual release on both Netflix & a Cinema theater to qualify for an Oscar nomination.
U need a star studded cast to support Eddie’s brilliant performance.
Wanna see…good to see Eddie working! I hope it’s Oscar nominated and he wins!
I love Eddie Murphy! Youngins’ do your research. His year will be 2020. Stand ups and Movies. Mark my words.
I WUB Eddie too!
I heard both select Theaters and Netflix.
Eddie a LEGEND
I always liked Eddie. Charlie Murphy would’ve been a nice addition to the cast too.
It’s premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival, but they’ll need to have a few more screenings before releasing it on Netflix it they’re hoping for any sort of Oscar nominations.
Murphy, Snipes, Epps, and Key?? Hell yes!
Looks like it’s gonna be hilarious
OMG! Didn’t hear this. Thank you.
I loooooove Titus! Cannot wait!
You know, Eddie is not liked by Hollywood. He has a past history of not being liked, (you can google it) so I doubt he will be nominated. He was hilarious in Bowfinger, but wasn’t nom’d. It’s the same for Sylvester Stallone. He was deserving of an award in Creed, but Hollywood doesn’t like him. You gotta be a NICE guy in Hollywood to win.
Eddie doesn’t have a good rep in Hollywood, the same as Stallone. There are some actors who might be nom’d, but will never win the big one.
Damn Eddie doesn’t age….he still looks goodT
Eddie still got it.
God rest his soul, he would have been too.
Whitney was always an entire mood
Exactly !!!!
It’s his fault every time I see the name “Aaron” I read it as, “Ay-ay-ron”???
It’s his fault every time I see the name “Aaron” I read it as, “Ay-ay-ron”???
Love you eddy but all I hear and see is the nutty professor character
Seeing her makes me sad.
Whitney was a train wreck waiting to happen, but no one could do anything to help her.
CAN’T WAIT TO SEE IT ESP WESLEY’S COMEBACK……..JENNY JONES!!!
Looking forward to seeing it!
Can’t wait to see it,
looks fun.

Definitely looking forward to this one. Eddie coming back to snatch wigs and beards !
He was robbed of an Oscar, this role hopefully will correct that! Go Eddie! Cant wait.
I never knew who Dolemite was (only heard the name here and there over the years). I finally Googled it. Oh.
“Way down in the jungle deep….
The badass lion stepped on the signifying monkey’s feet”….LOL.. Rudy Ray Moore’s daughter, has filed an injunction to stop the production of this film.

RIGHT LOL THOUGHTS IT WAS JUST ME
I am HERE for this! Being a 70’s baby, I grew up on Eddie’s movies and stand-up. Can’t wait!
