No details about the film’s plot have been disclosed at this time, but the film from director Mark Molloy and writer Will Beall (Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Gangster Squad), is currently in production. The cast includes the previously-announced Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Taylour Paige.
The original Beverly Hills Cop debuted in 1984 and followed Murphy’s Foley as a Detroit cop pursuing a murder investigation that leads him out west where he encounters a very different kind of culture in Beverly Hills. Reinhold’s Detective Billy Rosewood, Reiser’s Jeffrey Friedman, and Pinchot’s Serge were all featured in the original film, appearing in additional entries (1987’s Beverly Hills Cop II and 1994’s Beverly Hills Cop III) of the years.
Beverly Hills: Axel Foley is executive produced by Charisse Hewitt-Webster and Ray Angelic. Meanwhile, Jerry Bruckheimer and Chad Oman produce for Jerry Bruckheimer Films along with Eddie Murphy. Attached as a co-producer is Jerry Bruckheimer Films’ Melissa Reid.
Stay tuned to see what else is in store for the eagerly awaited flick as it continues to take shape at Netflix.
