The original Beverly Hills Cop cast is joining Eddie Murphy for Netflix's Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley, the fourth installment in the franchise.
Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser, and Bronson Pinchot have all signed on for the new flick, reprising their roles for the first time in nearly 30 years. The new sequel sees Axel Foley (Murphy) return to Beverly Hills once again to investigate the corruption of the police force, accompanied by his daughter and her ex-boyfriend. Taylour Paige and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have been cast in undisclosed roles.
Beverly Hills Cop debuted in 1984, starring Murphy as a street-smart Detroit, Michigan cop who travels to Beverly Hills, California to solve his best friend's murder. The film was nominated for both the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. Beverly Hills Cop II followed in 1987, with the full cast in tow, with Beverly Hills Cop III coming out in 1994. Reinhold and Pinchot joined Murphy for the third installment, but Reisner and Ashton were noticeably absent.
