It’s always nice to see which Hollywood celebrities stay friends after their projects together wrap. Now, Life's Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence have to be one of my new favorite duos like this after hearing about this ongoing inside joke about who is paying for their kids’ wedding. The duo reunited at the premiere of Murphy’s Beverly Hills Cop : Axel F , and it was a whole family affair.
Also pictured on the red carpet were the two Life actors' children, Eric Murphy and Jasmin Lawrence, who have been dating since 2021. The fourth installment in the franchise that includes some of Murphy's best movies will be released on Netflix's movie schedule on July 3rd. In the same genre, Lawrence’s Bad Boys : Ride or Die , which recently premiered on the 2024 movie schedule , has grossed almost $300 million at box offices worldwide.
So when the Coming to America star was asked by ET who would be paying for the potential wedding bill, he had an answer ready: Well, customarily the father pays for daughter, am I correct? That's the way it goes down. It shouldn't be an issue, you know? Bad Boys is out of the park and Martin has lots and lots of money, so he should be able to play for a splendid wedding. This is not the first time the two dads have joked about who’s footing the bill.
And although it was Lawrence who started the bit on Jimmy Kimmel Live ! in 2022, the Shrek star has been the one to keep the back-and-forth joke alive . Recently, for example, he told his fellow actor.
