Eddie Murphy didn’t wind up hosting this year’s Oscars, but he is returning to the big screen with A Thousand Words, a comedy co-starring Kerry Washington. Paramount Pictures is releasing the film on March 9, 2012 and in support of the upcoming release, they’ve just released two new clips.

The Plot:
Eddie Murphy is Jack McCall, a fast-talking literary agent, who can close any deal, any time, any way. He has set his sights on New Age guru Dr. Sinja (Cliff Curtis) for his own selfish purposes. But Dr. Sinja is on to him, and Jack’s life comes unglued after a magical Bodhi tree mysteriously appears in his backyard. With every word Jack speaks, a leaf falls from the tree and he realizes that when the last leaf falls, both he and the tree are toast. Words have never failed Jack McCall, but now he’s got to stop talking and conjure up some outrageous ways to communicate or he’s a goner.
