Axel Foley Is Back On July 3 – Watch Eddie Murphy In New Trailer For Netflix’s BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F
40 years ago on December 5, 1984, BEVERLY HILLS COP was released in theaters and earned $230 million in the United States, becoming the highest-grossing film in 1984. Eddie Murphy’s role as Axel Foley made him a box office star, Harold Faltermeyer composed the unforgettable theme song, “Axel F,” which became an radio hit, and the movie received nominations for Best Original Screenplay and Best Film Editing at the 57th Academy Awards.
From Producers Jerry Bruckheimer, Eddie Murphy, Chad Oman, and Director Mark Molloy, check out the new trailer for BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F.
Detective Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) is back on the beat in Beverly Hills. After his daughter’s life is threatened, she (Taylour Paige) and Foley team up with a new partner (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and old pals Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton) to turn up the heat and uncover a conspiracy. Also returning is Paul Reiser (Aliens, Stranger Things) as Jeffrey Friedman and Bronson Pinchot (Perfect Strangers, Risky Business) as Serge.
As producer Jerry Bruckheimer (Top Gun: Maverick, The Rock) tells Tudum, “Eddie’s such an incredible artist. He can do drama, he can do comedy – he can do anything. And he’s the same Axel Foley. He’s still on the streets. He’s still doing what he does. Obviously with age you get wiser. But he still has the twinkle in his eye.”
Axel’s been back to Beverly Hills a few times since his first jaunt in 1984, but it’s changed just as much as he has. “Detroit is a much different city than Los Angeles and especially Beverly Hills,” Bruckheimer says. “He still has the same kind of wonderment at the things you see walking down Rodeo Drive.”
BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F premieres July 3, only on Netflix.
