No Beverly Hills Cop 4 but a TV show, maybe
Posted by Patrick Sauriol on Wednesday, October 26, 2011
Eddie Murphy is out talking with the press about his new movie Tower Heist. He's been relatively quiet from the Hollywood spotlight, except for the occasional pickup of a transsexual that needed a ride, but now he's given an interview to Rolling Stone talking about everything under the sun from doing stand-up again to starring in another Beverly Hills Cop movie.
Paramount developed a screenplay for Beverly Hills Cop 4 years back but never pulled the trigger on it. Still, Murphy's got years ahead of him still, so BHC4 could always be around the corner. Right?
"They're not doing it," Murphy tells the magazine. "What I'm trying to do now is produce a TV show starring Axel Foley's son, and Axel is the chief of police now in Detroit. I'd do the pilot, show up here and there. None of the movie scripts were right; it was trying to force the premise. If you have to force something, you shouldn't be doing it. It was always a rehash of the old thing. It was always wrong."
So, Beverly Hills Cop the TV series? Maybe it could work, but Axel's son would have to be living in Beverly Hills away from his Chicago dad for this premise to live up to the title.
What do you think? Is there any interest out there for a Beverly Hills Cop TV show? And who would you pick to play Alex Foley's son?

Daddy Day Care is proof that Eddie just needs to give up the business. Also, without Daddy Day Care, there would be no Daddy Day Camp, which I've heard is even worse, and is proof that Cuba Gooding Jr. needs to give up the business as well.
