The Hollywood icon previously confessed that he had wouldn't have made a follow-up but for the original film's "cult following".
The 59-year-old actor said: "We never planned on making a sequel to the movie. We had done the movie and it was in the past. But the movie stayed around. Of all the movies that I've done over the last 40 years, 'Coming to America' is the only one that has a cult following.
"And then, maybe around six, five years ago, I got an idea. Then it took four years for it to come together."
