Eddie Murphy told Extra that he plans to retire soon, making “Meet Dave” one of his last films.

According to Eddie Murphy, “Fifty years (old) I’ll have been making movies thirty years and I have close to fifty movies and it is like why am I in the movies…I’ve done that part now. I’ll go back to the stage and do standup.”

Could it be because Eddie Murphy’s films have been crap lately? If so, maybe retirement is a good move.

And speaking of crap, “Meet Dave” opens July 11.
