“Kill my agent. C-I-L-L my agent.”
Cinematical has announced that Eddie Murphy is set to star in a new science fiction comedy:
“Starship Dave” tells the story of a crew of miniature, human-looking aliens who are seeking a way to save their doomed planet. Murphy will play — wait for it — Dave, the human spacecraft they travel in an as well as the ship’s captain.
So, basically, we’re talking “Innerspace” meets “The Adventures of Pluto Nash,” here…not exactly a recipe for the resounding success that Murphy’s career could use right about now.
And, to be honest, we might perhaps have a wee soft spot for that 1987 flick starring Dennis Quaid, Martin Short and Meg Ryan…but something tells us that won’t be nearly enough to keep “Starship Dave” from flaming out in spectacular fashion.
