The 19-year-old actress plays Princess Omma Joffer, who is his daughter in the film as well.

Coming 2 America is all about the girl power, so it’s appropriate that producer and star Eddie Murphy took the opportunity to feature a powerful girl in his life, aka his daughter Bella. Directed by Craig Brewer Writing Credits Cast (in credits order) complete, awaiting verification Produced by Music by Jermaine Stegall Cinematography by Joe Jody Williams. Of course, Eddie is back as Akeem and many of the 1988 cast members reprise their roles, including Arsenio. ![]() In the first film, he accompanies Akeem to Queens and reluctantly accepts posing as poor African students and living in a hovel to better assimilate into society.
