Netflix just dropped the trailer for Being Eddie, a new documentary diving deep into Murphy’s legendary career — from his teenage rise on Saturday Night Live to becoming one of the most influential entertainers in Hollywood history. In the trailer, Murphy reflects, “I started so young. My stuff took off because they’d never seen a young Black person take charge.” The film features commentary from comedy heavyweights including Arsenio Hall, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Jamie Foxx, Jerry Seinfeld, Kevin Hart, Pete Davidson, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Tracy Morgan — all weighing in on Murphy’s impact and longevity. The documentary promises a rare, personal look at how Murphy has navigated fame, success, and reinvention without losing his identity. Being Eddie premieres Nov. 12 on Netflix.
