The
Los Angeles Times asked me if I'd be interested in talking to the two men who did the makeup for the two
Coming to America films. I sure was: Rick Baker, who did
Coming to America, is one of the giants of the industry, while Mike Marino, who handled
Coming 2 America, is one of the real rising stars. They're friends, and we had a very fun chat about how to transform Eddie Murphy, both then and now, into the movies' different characters.
Hope you enjoy.
