The trailer for Coming 2 America has just arrived - and we are beyond excited.

You can watch it below:

In the movie, which will air on Amazon Prime Video early next year, Eddie Murphy will make his return as Prince Akeem, starting a brand new adventure which takes him back to NYC to find his son who he never knew existed.

Up until now, little has been known about the plot details, but thanks to the trailer, we've got a little more insight! And it looks so good.

The official synopsis explains: "Set in the lush and royal country of Zamunda, newly-crowned King Akeem (Eddie Murphy) and his trusted confidante Semmi (Arsenio Hall) embark on an all-new hilarious adventure that has them traversing the globe from their great African nation to the borough of Queens, New York - where it all began."

Over 30 years on from the original 1988 comedy, stars from the first movie - including James Earl Jones as Akeem's father, Shari Headley as Akeem's wife, John Amos and Louie Anderson - will all reprise their roles.

Of course, there are new additions to the cast too, including KiKi Lane, Leslie Jones, Teyana Taylor, Bella Murphy, Rotimi, Tracy Morgan, Nomzamo Mbatha and Wesley Snipes.

And Eddie thinks it'll be just as good as the original movie, explaining: "What I'm most excited about the audience seeing is how amazing this movie is.

"We have incredible new cast members like Wesley Snipes, Tracy Morgan, Leslie Jones, Jermaine Fowler, KiKi Layne and my own daughter, Bella Murphy, among others, who are all so funny and really brought their A-game. It's just a great picture and I'm excited to have audiences see it.

"This is the perfect time to return to Zamunda because it's been a while since we've had a great comedy that everybody can enjoy. Zamunda is a very funny place, and the world needs that right now."

We cannot wait for this - it arrives on Amazon Prime Video on 5th March 2021.
