Tracy Morgan Update: Footage From Comedian's New Movie 'Top Five' Released With Chris Rock As He Recovers [WATCH]
As Tracy Morgan recovers, a new clip from his upcoming movie Top Five - starring Chris Rock and Rosario Dawson - was released via YouTube this week.
In the clip, Morgan and Rock's characters discuss their top five favorite rappers of all time with a group of friends. Morgan lists Slick Rick, Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, KRS-One and The Notorious B.I.G. He also calls Jay Z his “sixth man.” On the other hand, Rock puts Jay Z, Nas, Scarface, Rakim and Biggie on his list, with LL Cool J in the sixth spot.
Top Five, which is written and directed by Rock, is coming to theaters on Dec. 12.
Morgan, 45, was left in critical condition after a Walmart truck hit into the limo bus that he and four others were traveling in on the New Jersey Turnpike in June. Morgan was returning from a standup show held the night prior at the Dover Downs Hotel & Casino in Delaware. The accident killed fellow comedian James McNair, known as Jimmy Mack, and injured two others.
“He’s OK. I saw him not too long ago,” Rock recently told USA Today about Morgan. “He doesn’t live too far from me. I went by his house and showed him a copy of the movie. He was very happy. He’s got physical therapists. There’s a lot of rehab going on. He’s traumatized — his friend died. It’s Tracy — not the most stable guy in the world to begin with.”
