Eddie Murphy Returns as Axel Foley in 'Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley'

Netflix releases first look at the long-awaited sequel, set to premiere in 2024.

Netflix has released the first look at Eddie Murphy's return as Axel Foley in the upcoming sequel, 'Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley', nearly 30 years after the last installment.
The film reunites Murphy with franchise co-stars Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser and Bronson Pinchot, and introduces new stars Kevin Bacon, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Taylour Paige.
The plot revolves around Foley and his criminal defense attorney daughter, played by Taylour Paige, who pulls her father into a California-based case where he'll cause issues for Kevin Bacon's LAPD special-unit officer, and team up with a new partner, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
The film is directed by Mark Molloy with a script written by Will Beall, and is set to be released in 2024.
The project moved from Paramount, which had been developing the film for years, to Netflix in 2019.
