According to Variety, Eddie Murphy is reteaming with "Head of the Class" star and Norbit director Brian Robbins to make a movie about a man who finds out he can only say one thousand more words before he dies, appropriately titled "A Thousand Words." This, of course, means that Murphy will also have to play the man's 500-pound girlfriend, his 500-pound brother, his 500-pound father and his 500-pound son. The man loves his fat suits, and he loves his fat jokes.
Perhaps even more disturbing is the idea of Murphy developing a movie version of "Fantasy Island." No word on whether he's going to star or just be behind the scenes, but dollars to donuts he's going to play both Ricardo Montalban AND Hervé Villechaize.
