Paramount Pictures has hired Barry Blaustein and David Sheffield, the screenwriters of the 1988 Eddie Murphy comedy "Coming to America" to pen a potential sequel.

The project is in the early stages of development and it is currently unclear whether Murphy would reprise his role as Akeem Joffer, a pampered African prince who travels to New York City undercover to find an independent-minded wife, reported Entertainment Weekly.

John Landis directed the original film, which also starred Arsenio Hall, James Earl Jones, and Shari Headley.
