      From Saturday Night Live to stand-up to movies, Eddie Murphy is one of the most iconic comedians of all time. Take our quiz to find out which of his famous characters best fits your unique personality!

      Which Eddie Murphy Character Are You?

      Discovering which Eddie Murphy character you embody isn't just a journey through some of the most laugh-out-loud moments in film history, it's also a mirror held up to the quirky traits and endearing quirks that make you, well, you. Maybe you've got the suave confidence of Axel Foley, with a leather jacket slung over your shoulder and a knack for getting yourself in and out of trouble with a mischievous grin. Or perhaps, deep down, your heart beats in sync with the good-natured rhythms of Prince Akeem, searching for true love in a world that's just a tad bit crazier than you are.

      A colorful array of iconic Eddie Murphy characters, from Axel Foley to Sherman Klump, stand in a row, each with their own distinct personality and style

      Swinging from the family tree of characters like the lovably eccentric Klumps to scene-stealers like the smooth-talking Donkey from Shrek, Eddie Murphy's eclectic array of personas offers a striking variety of traits that could align eerily well with your own personality. It’s like an all-you-can-eat buffet of dramatic flair, and you've got a VIP pass! Are you the life of the party, a closet donkey serenading the stars, or the undercover genius with a penchant for wild inventions?

      So, grab your red leather suit or your regal crown, because it's time to embark on an adventure through the iconic roles of a comedic legend and find out the ultimate answer to the pressing question: Which Eddie Murphy character are you? Don't forget, like the best of Murphy's comedic concoctions, the result might just surprise you with its accuracy—or have you doubled over in laughter at the thought of the resemblance.

      Eddie Murphy's Rise to Stardom

      Eddie Murphy transformed from a snappy comedian into a movie star whose very name became synonymous with blockbuster hits and unabashed laughs.

      Saturday Night Live Shenanigans

      Imagine it's the early 1980s and you are flipping through your TV channels only to land on 'Saturday Night Live' (SNL). There, a young Eddie Murphy bursts onto the stage, his comedic timing impeccable and his presence electric. As a regular cast member, Murphy's performances breathed new life into SNL, becoming the beating heart of the show during a period many considered its low point.

      Box Office Breakthrough

      Fast-forward just a bit, and you find Murphy taking the leap from the small screen to the big screen with era-defining roles in movies like "48 Hrs." and "Beverly Hills Cop." Suddenly, you couldn't hit a movie theater without seeing his face plastered on a poster, his infectious smile and undeniable charm making him a box office sensation.

      Master of the Screen and the Stage

      But it's not just in front of the camera where Murphy shines. Cast your mind to one of the most iconic stand-up specials of all time, 'Raw'. In a leather suit that's as bold as his humor, Eddie Murphy captivates you with his raw comedic genius, proving his versatility as both an actor and a stand-up comedian.

      Iconic Characters and Transformations

      Eddie Murphy's talent lies in his chameleon-like ability to become anyone, from African royalty to a smooth-talking donkey. In a blend of humor and remarkable acting range, his transformations often involve elaborate prosthetics and embodying multiple characters within a single film.

      A Royal Laugh: From Zamunda to Queens

      You might be nobility at heart, drawn to the elegant and humorous portrayal of Prince Akeem in Coming to America. An African prince from Zamunda, this character's journey to find true love in Queens brought us equal parts laughter and lessons in humility. The sequel, Coming 2 America, saw us revisiting old friends and making some new ones, proving that a true prince's humor is timeless.

      Science of the Silly: Professor Klump and Buddy Love

      Can you relate to a genius entwined with a zest for life? Then you may resonate with Sherman Klump from The Nutty Professor. Murphy's portrayal of the sweet-natured, intellectually brilliant, yet self-conscious professor Sherman Klump—and his suave alter ego, Buddy Love—showcased his ability to capture two polar personalities in one. His performance, bolstered by pioneering prosthetics, made us root for the underdog and laugh with the id.

      Master of Disguise: A Gallery of Personas

      Do you possess the versatility to slip seamlessly from one character to another? Eddie Murphy's gallery of personas unfolds like an actor's master class. Taking cues from the likes of Peter Sellers, Murphy showcased this talent in roles like the lively soul singer Randy Watson and the band Sexual Chocolate in Coming to America. Whether it's voicing a lovable sidekick in the Shrek franchise or transforming into the boisterous Rasputia Latimore in Norbit, each character painted by Murphy is an unforgettable portrait in the hall of iconic characters.
