Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley
The fourth installment titled Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley is a Netflix exclusive and will serve as a soft reboot of the franchise.
The Beverly Hills cop franchise kicked off in 1984 and was a huge hit. It was followed by a mostly well-received sequel in 1987 and the not-so well-received Beverly Hills Cop 3 in 1994.
The three movies combined have grossed over 700 million dollars worldwide, Eddie Murphy who has made a comeback with the 2019 Netflix biopic Dolemite Is My Name is also producing the movie.
The movie is directed by Mark Molloy and Will Beall who have worked on the screenplay of Aquaman and the Gangster squad had written the screenplay.
