[net.startrek] Murphy with Ears???

lear@topaz.ARPA (eliot) (05/26/85)

I am really confused when one article on the net says "Sorry, no Eddie 
Murphy" and another article says that Eddie Murphy will be appearing with
Vulcan ears.  Of course, both sources have it on 'The best of authorities.'
Next thing you know, we will hear how Billy Idol was seen on the set and was
playing a Klingon.  (It's a role I think he would rather enjoy!)

In yesterdays (5/26) Sunday Chicago Tribune, it was stated that Murphy had
met seriously with Nimoy to discuss his appearing in STIV.  The writer then
went on to say that the script would be completed in 6 weeks and that a
decision would be made then as to whether Eddie Murphy would be in the movie.
The decision would be made on whether a particular character would be right
for Eddie Murphy.
