‘Beverly Hills Cop 4’ Axel Foley trailer: Eddie Murphy reprises role

For the first time in nearly three decades, Eddie Murphy will reprise his role as Axel Foley in a new  “Beverly Hills Cop” franchise film.

Netflix on Thursday released the trailer for “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley” which is set to be released on the streaming platform next year.

The trailer shared on the company’s social media channels comes two days after Netflix teased the film in a post shared on X, formerly Twitter. The teaser featured a photo of Murphy in character as Foley wearing his trademark Detroit Lions jacket and simply said: “He’s back. Axel Foley returns in 2024!”

Murphy last appeared on the big screen as Foley in 1994’s “Beverly Hills Cop 3.” The film received negative reviews from critics, and was even considered by Murphy to be the weakest of the trilogy.

Attempts to make a fourth film have stalled for decades, but the long-awaited sequel, which Netflix plans to release in the summer of 2024, will feature both familiar faces and some new cast members.
