Eddie Murphy Teases Details Of His Upcoming Documentary The Last Stand

In an interview with Collider, acclaimed comic actor Eddie Murphy revealed that he was initially hesitant to agree to become the subject of "The Last Stand," a documentary about his life that's currently in production. Murphy eventually came around to the idea after deciding that his life story was, in fact, suitably interesting enough for film.

"I've had a unique career," Murphy said. "So I was like, 'Everybody does documentaries now.' I've been doing it long enough, and there's enough stuff that there's an interesting story there, how it all happened, and it's all documented."

Murphy also recounted how, alongside Angus Wall as well as producers John Fox and John Davis, he decided that winning his Cecil B. DeMille lifetime achievement award at the 2023 Golden Globes will serve as the documentary's end point, meaning that the project will likely span the entirety of his career up until then. "We had probably ended, maybe, three or four months ago, then was like, 'Hey, I'm going to get this Cecil B. DeMille Award. That's a good way to end it.' So the end will be that, winning that, getting that award," Murphy said.

Since its announcement (via Collider), these are just about the only concrete details available about "The Last Stand," so those interested in this unprecedented insight into Murphy's life will simply have to wait for more information about its release to surface.
