Congratulations are in order for Eddie Murphy. The 25th Annual Critics Choice Awards announced that they’d be awarding him their Lifetime Achievement Award. That is in addition to his Best Actor nod for his star turn in “Dolemite is My Name.”
Murphy is well deserving of the honor. He’s on the short list of actors who have starred in multiple $100 million pictures over the past three decades, from “Beverly Hills Cop” to “Daddy Day Care.” His other hits include “48 Hours,” “Trading Places,” “Coming to America,” “Harlem Nights,” “Bowfinger,” “The Nutty Professor,” and the voice of Donkey in the “Shrek” franchise.
The 25th Annual Critics Choice Awards will air on January 12th on The CW.
