Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley – Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Taylour Paige Cast Alongside Eddie Murphy in Sequel

The upcoming installment in the Beverly Hills Cop films has bolstered its cast with reports from Deadline stating that Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Taylour Paige will be starring alongside Eddie Murphy in Netflix‘s highly-anticipated sequel, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley.

Beverly Hills Cop followed Murphy who played Axel Foley, a Detroit cop who finds himself in Beverly Hills attempting to solve the murder of his friend. All of the previous films had Foley returning to Beverly Hills as he solved crimes but with the plot of the fourth film under wraps, it is unknown where Foley might end up but if the title is to indicate anything, we would say it’s safe to say we will be back in Beverly Hills, California.

Gordon-Levitt has starred in many notable films including 500 Days of Summer, The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, 10 Things I Hate About You, The Night Before, and Looper. He will also star in the upcoming Disney live-action adaptation of Pinocchio. Paige became a breakout star after their role in Zola and is set to appear in the upcoming The Toxic Avenger film.

Murphy is renowned as a comedy legend who has made a name for himself through stand-up and film. His role in Beverly Hills Cop came soon after he departed from Saturday Night Live and jump-started a career that has led to roles in Coming to America, Shrek, Mulan, The Nutty Professor, and Daddy Daycare.

The film is directed by Mark Molloy from a script written by Will Beall. The film is produced by Murphy alongside Jerry Bruckheimer, Chad Oman, Charisse Hewitt-Webster, and Ray Angelic with Melissa Reid serving as co-producer.

Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley does not currently have a release date but will stream exclusively on Netflix.
