Kel Mitchell, accompanied by his wife Asia Lee and their children Wisdom and Honor, attended the premiere of “Candy Cane Lane” at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles, California, on November 28, 2023.
Kel took to Instagram to share his excitement about the much-anticipated Christmas comedy film, which stars Eddie Murphy, Tracee Ellis Ross, Robin Thede, Nick Offerman, Chris Redd, and Jillian Bell.
“Rocked the night with my besties at the #CandyCaneLane premiere! @therealasialee , Wisdom, Honor, and I had a blast on the festive red carpet – felt like a Christmas bash! And yes, they even had burgers at the party! Major congrats to Eddie Murphy and the stellar cast for delivering an amazing film,” he wrote.
Mitchell, star of “Good Burger 2” film, experienced a health scare earlier this month. On November 7th, while out shopping, he encountered a “genuinely frightening” episode of dizziness, numbness in the right side of his arm and leg, and difficulty swallowing.
“I was out shopping when suddenly the whole room started spinning,” he explained in a video on Instagram. “So, I was like, ‘I must be dehydrated so I need to go get some water, some food.’ When I did that, the whole right side of my arm and my leg was numb, followed by me not being able to swallow. And that’s when I panicked.”
Taking to social media a couple of days later, Kel Mitchell updated his concerned fans, revealing that the symptoms were caused by a “bulging disc from a prior injury pressing up against a nerve.”
Despite his recent illlness, Kel has been actively promoting his new movie, Good Burger 2, which is currently streaming on Paramount Plus.
“Candy Cane Lane” is slated to release the film on December 1, 2023, on Amazon Prime Video.
