'It's all about my children'

Comedy icon Eddie Murphy offers a rare glimpse into his home life in a new documentary

Even as a child, Eddie knew he'd go far

Eddie Murphy has been a Hollywood star for more than four decades, with fans loving him for his iconic performances as Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop, Sherman Klump in The Nutty Professor and even Donkey in Shrek. However, the 64-year-old actor has rarely revealed his real self on camera, which makes a new documentary about him all the more fascinating.

"There’s a great clip of Eddie on a talk show early on in his career, talking about how he’s always been able to do impersonations and different voices. He talks about how his mom used to ask him, ‘Who's Eddie? What voice is Eddie’s voice?’ This movie answers that question,” Being Eddie director Angus Wall said.
