Axel Foley will be making his long-awaited return to the big screen in about two years. Paramount today set a March 25, 2016, release date for Beverly Hills Cop, the fourth installment of the mega-grossing 1980s movie series that has Eddie Murphy set to reprise his role as the wise-cracking detective.

The new film has the pre-summer weekend to itself for now.



Jerry Bruckheimer is back as producer, and Brett Ratner is directing the pic, which will see Murphy’s Foley returning to his Detroit roots.

Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec, the scribes behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, are writing that script.



Early last year, CBS ordered a television pilot from Shawn Ryan and Murphy that was to follow the adventures of Foley’s cop son, with Barry Sonnenfeld directing and Murphy set to appear in the pilot and possibly recur.

But the network surprisingly passed on the project at the eleventh hour.

I dunno,i dont think it will be as good as 1,2 and 3 are!!

Really? Wow- another classic '80s movie series gets revived.....Hopefully it will be good.

i don't know if I am up to seeing Grampa Foley chasing down criminals in high speed wheel chair chases, subduing them with his cane, sticking prunes up their tail pipes and flipping his walker 27 times.

^^Stereotypes, stereotypes, stereotypes...ohno: :crazy: :X) Cliche.

LOL@Robyrob hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I agree with you. Eddie Murphy will be 55 years old when part 4 comes out and he'll be too old to be chasing bad guys. There doesn't need to be anymore Beverly Hills Cop sequels. When it does come out, it's not gonna be better than part 1 and part 2. Part 3 sucked and i wish John Ashton had been in it.
