In 2003 Eddie Murphy was still up to his old tricks and setsiders have coined a phrase for it: “Eddie Time.” (as in “call time is 8 AM – Eddie Time is 12 noon) The heck with the schedule- Eddie shows up for work when he feels like it. While shooting Daddy Day Care, the cast and crew reported for work at the crack of dawn and were set to roll by 8AM. They have to hurry up and wait anywhere from ten minutes to eight hours for their star to appear. The same thing happened on the set of his upcoming film The Haunted MansionEddie and that’s why Eddie’s movies are often delayed. But no one complains, because Eddie’s nice when he DOES arrive, and everybody’s handsomely paid to wait.
