Get ready for some fresh laughs and high-octane action! Netflix dropped the official trailer for “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley,” the long-awaited fourth installment in the beloved comedy franchise. Eddie Murphy reprises his iconic role as Detroit detective Axel Foley, returning to the world of Beverly Hills opulence and causing mayhem in the process.
A New Case for a Familiar Face
The trailer reveals that Axel is drawn back to Beverly Hills when his daughter (played by Taylour Paige) finds herself in danger. This throws him back into the world of fancy cars, lavish mansions, and his old police colleagues. We see the return of Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton), with both actors looking to reprise their comedic roles alongside Murphy.

A Fresh Partner for Axel
Joining the cast this time around is Joseph Gordon-Levitt. While details about his character are scarce, the trailer suggests he’ll play a new partner assigned to Axel. Their contrasting styles – Axel’s brash, street-smart approach clashing with a likely more by-the-book partner – promise plenty of comedic moments.
Action and Humor: A Classic Recipe
The trailer stays true to the franchise’s formula, offering a healthy mix of action sequences and laugh-out-loud moments. We see Axel in classic form, getting into car chases, causing explosions, and generally creating chaos while solving the case. Expect witty dialogue, physical humor, and the signature Beverly Hills Cop blend of action and comedy.

Eddie Murphy Back in His Element
This trailer is a reminder of why Eddie Murphy is a comedic legend. He effortlessly slips back into the role of Axel Foley, bringing his signature charm, charisma, and comedic timing to the screen. Fans who loved Murphy’s portrayal in the original trilogy are sure to be excited to see him back in action.
A Nostalgic Return for Fans
The trailer cleverly uses music and visuals to evoke nostalgia for the original films. The iconic “Beverly Hills Cop” theme song makes an appearance, along with quick shots referencing classic scenes from the earlier movies. This is sure to bring a smile to the faces of longtime fans of the franchise.

Questions Remain: Plot Details and Release Date
While the trailer offers a glimpse into the film’s tone and humor, it keeps the plot details under wraps. The exact nature of the danger Axel’s daughter faces and the overall mystery remain unknown. Additionally, Netflix hasn’t yet announced a release date for the film. Filming wrapped up in April 2024, so a late 2024 or early 2025 release seems likely.
A Summer of Laughter (Hopefully) on the Horizon
With its star power, action-packed sequences, and classic humor, “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” has all the ingredients to be a summer hit. Fans of the original movies and newcomers alike can look forward to a fun and nostalgic trip back to Beverly Hills, filled with Eddie Murphy’s comedic genius. Keep an eye out for further updates and the official release date to see Axel Foley back on the big screen – well, technically streaming service screen – causing trouble once again.
