It's been nearly 30 years since we last saw Axel Foley on the streets of Beverly Hills. And now, Eddie Murphy is back as the legendary Detroit cop in the newest installment of the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F. The highly anticipated summer action comedy hits Netflix on July 3rd and we now finally have a bigger look with the film's official trailer. All kinds of crazy action sequences are teased in the newly released trailer from cop car & helicopter chases to all kinds of insane crashes that should make this nostalgic film one to remember this summer.
In the new movie, Axel is returns doing what he does best. Per the log line, "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."
"To hell with a seatbelt! We're on the edge!" screams Axel F while in the middle of a cop chase in a semi-truck while crashing in to a Beverly Hills Mansion.
Returning from the original films are Murphy, Judge Reinhold as Billy Rosewood, and John Ashton, plus Paul Reiser as Jeffrey Friedman and Bronson Pinchot. New cast additions to this installment include Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Detective Abbott & Kevin Bacon as Captain Cade Grant.
Eddie Murphy has certainly been making an explosive comeback in the film space since his somewhat lengthy hiatus in the mid 2010s. The actor & comedian returned on the scene in 2019 with Dolemite Is My Name, You People (both on Netflix), Coming 2 America & Candy Cane Lane (both on Prime Video). He's next to be seen in The Pickup alongside Pete Davidson, Andrew Dice Clay, & Keke Palmer.
