He’s been hinting at it in interviews for years, but according to a few sourcesEddie Murphy allegedly got back on stage after 25 years and performed 10 minutes of material at L.A.’s Comedy Store.

The Store is a haven for the who’s who in comedy, and someone on Murphy’s level to perform there is no surprise. What’s being reported in several places is that the big-name performer was actually Eddie Murphy. His two stand-up specials, Raw and Delirious, are legendary. Does this mean we will we finally see another stand-up special?

Murphy is set to star as Richard Pryor’s father in his biopic, so it seems like “the comeback” is in full-court mode, if these reports are correct, but nothing has been confirmed.
