Rudy Ray Moore (Eddie Murphy) in Dolemite Is My Name
Eddie Murphy is one of the single most iconic comedy stars of all-time, and is currently in the midst of a major comeback. Murphy may have earned a bit of backlash in recent years due to a series of critically reviled family films, but the success of the legacy sequel Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F on Netflix indicates that he hasn’t lost his touch with audiences.
Shrek 2 PGAnimationAdventureComedyFantasy Newlyweds venture to a faraway kingdom to meet the royal in-laws, sparking a series of comedic misadventures. The couple must navigate the treacherous waters of royal expectations and a conniving villain’s plot to break them apart, all while reaffirming their commitment to each other in a tale of love, identity, and acceptance.
Mushu is certainly one of Murphy’s most quotable characters, and one that could have never been voiced by another actor. It’s a character that added just the right amount of heart, whilst also indicating that the film was intended to be a fun adventure that never got too somber for its own good. The 2020 live-action remake released on Disney+ suffered because Murphy was not directly involved in it.

To reclaim his peaceful solitude, Shrek strikes a deal with the diminutive tyrant Lord Farquaad to rescue Princess Fiona from a dragon-guarded castle. An unlikely friendship forms between Shrek, Fiona, and a talkative Donkey, leading to comedic adventures and lessons about true love and acceptance.
