EDDIE MURPHY REFUSES TO CROSS PICKETLINE
Just got off the horn with Oscar-nominated scribe Josh Olson who informed me that fatsuit thespian/full-time-party-girl-affecianado Eddie Murphy refused to cross the picket line which had formed at today’s shooting location for his new movie NowhereLand.
But funnyman Murphy’s display of solidarity did not end there. He also asked the WGA strike captains to picket outside the set of his 2002 film THE ADVENTURES OF PLUTO NASH so he could refuse to cross that picket line as well. “You guys have a time machine, right?” Eddie kept asking. “You writers are smart. One of you has to have figured out the space-time continuum thing. Like David E. Kelley. Or whatsisname. Haggis. You can do that, right?” The writers didn’t have the heart to tell him no.
NowhereLand stars Eddie Murphy alongside Thomas Haden Church, Nicole Ari Parker and Vanessa Williams and is set to release from Parmount in 2008.
What’s missing from this set? Eddie Murphy.
