Noah Wyle Says Eddie Murphy Rejected His Autograph Request at Age 9

Noah Wyle has recalled approaching Eddie Murphy for an autograph as a nine-year-old after telling the comedian how much he enjoyed Saturday Night Live. Wyle said Murphy asked why he was awake so late, then dismissed his autograph request. The experience, he said, shaped his decision never to turn away young fans who ask for his signature. Years later, Wyle’s daughter recreated the autograph as a birthday gift, signing a photo of Murphy with a handwritten note. Wyle said he framed the thoughtful gift in his office.
