Eddie Murphy Stops Filming Movie To Support Writers

I'm told that striking Hollywood writers disrupted a Paramount movie filming in Pacific Palisades today -- and the pic's star Eddie Murphy, who was in the middle of shooting when the picketers arrived at 10:30 AM, left soon after and did not come back for the rest of the day. The comedian, however, had been scheduled to be on the location all day. Technically, there was no picket line when Murphy reported for work early in the morning, so it was unclear if he would have refused to cross it. But WGA sources claim he stopped work once a picket line was set up in a show of unity with the writers.
