Eddie Murphy

Eddie Murphy looks younger than his 62 years, but given his long track record, seems like he should be older. His secret? Starting young.

He was still in his teens when he joined Saturday Night Live, revitalizing the show after the departure of the original Not Ready for Prime Time Players, then launched a phenomenal movie career that included 48 Hrs. and its sequel, Trading Places, the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, the Shrek franchise, Coming to America and its sequel, and much more. He still knows how to score massive laughs, as you know if you saw Dolemite Is My Name (above).

He may be the funniest person to ever grace the screen.
