<p>#CedricTheEntertainer recently revealed to @HuffPost that he once had plans to make a #BernieMac hologram for an Original Kings of Comedy reunion!</p>
<p>“We tried. We were very close. We had a couple of scripted ideas, and then we had the idea of just getting back together to do a mini-tour,” Cedric tells @HuffPost. “It was right around the time Bernie [Mac] was ill. A lot of people didn’t know how ill he was. We thought we could squeeze it in, but unfortunately, the timing on that didn’t work out.”</p>
<p>After Bernie passed away from pneumonia back in 2008, Cedric, along with his “Original Kings of Comedy” buddies #SteveHarvey and #DLHughley, just didn’t feel right about moving forward without Bernie. “Nobody really wanted to do it without him,” says Cedric. “It was this weird thing: Do we replace Bernie with someone? Do we do it without him? Do we do him as a hologram like at Coachella with Tupac? How weird do we want to go with this?”<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>He continued, “The technology was supposedly getting a lot better, and maybe we would do a short bit where we put Bernie up in this hologram situation. It was gonna be an expensive task. MTV still had the rights to the film, and I think they were transitioning into some other things. The idea never manifested all the way.”</p>
<p>In addition to it being expensive, Steve’s schedule just became so full to the point he couldn’t take on another project!</p>
<p>“It just became an idea where eventually Steve [Harvey] took on his 137th show,” Cedric said. “He just couldn’t do it. He’s hosting ‘Family Feud’ and ‘Little Big Shots’ and a radio show, and I’m like, ‘OK, Steve, that’s it.’ ”</p>
<p>Maybe one day they can still do this. I mean, would y’all be here for a Bernie Mac hologram?!</p>
