10 Hilariously One Sided Hollywood Sibling Rivalries

2. Eddie Murphy Vs Charles Q Murphy

Murphys Eddie Murphy may have almost completely lost his relevance these days, but it's hard to argue with the comic legacy the man leaves behind. He's the second highest-grossing actor in the US, a result of starring in a number of popular films, including the 48 Hrs duology, Trading Places, the Beverly Hills Cop series, Coming to America, The Nutty Professor series, Doctor Dolittle, and of course, voicing Donkey in the Shrek films. And this is all without even mentioning his brilliant standup work in the 1980s, or his brief comeback in 2007's Dreamgirls, which earned him an Academy Award nomination. Eddie may not have had a memorable role since Dreamgirls, but he's still leagues ahead of brother Charlie when you consider that most people don't even know that his brother exists. It wasn't until the last decade that people began to take notice, as Charlie earned a spot on Chappelle's Show, and earned many laughs by talking about his brother's fame, though his roles have been pretty sparse and mid-key since. Still, how's about giving the guy a chance playing Axel Foley's brother in the next Beverly Hills Cop film?
