Eddie Murphy’s “Coming 2 America” brings back to the fictional Zamunda, home to the royal family and its future heir.
Much of the Zamunda was recreated in Georgia, with the palace courtesy of Rick Ross, who opened the doors of his estate to the film’s production team.
“Our big problem was, where do we find a house that had the scale of the possibilities for a very lavish palace?” production designer Jefferson Sage.
The Ross estate would serve as the royal palace, as the 45,000 square-foot mansion sits on 235 acres with 12 bedrooms and a dining room that seats up to 100 people. The home had the scale director Craig Brewer and Sage were looking for.
