Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 48 Hrs. (1982)?
a.
Eddie Murphy
states in his 2008 Biography special that his characters name was originally scripted to be "Willie Biggs."

Reggie was a compromise by having just the first name be a typical "Hollywood, made-up, black guy name."

The lengthy scene where the older Jedediah Leland is interviewed at the old folks home was

broken ankle had forced the rescheduling of this scene, which originally was supposed to be shot towards the end of the film, so Cotten hadnt gotten around to learning his lines yet. Consequently he was supposed to do the scene from cue cards but because his old-age make-up included contact lenses dipped in milk and a wig that wouldnt stay on (hence the sun visor) Cotten took a couple of hours out to learn the lines properly.
