CBS Wins Rights to Beverly Hills Cop TV Series
Axel Foley has found a home at CBS. Vulture reports that the network has won the rights to the new Beverly Hills Cop TV series, which is being produced by Eddie Murphy and Shawn Ryan (The Shield, Terriers, Last Resort). CBS has given a pilot production commitment to the potential series.
Vulture has a bit more detail on the project, saying it centers on the lead character, Aaron Foley, as he works “to "take down the criminal elements of the rich and famous, while simultaneously trying to escape the shadow of his larger than life father."
Yes, his dad is of course Axel Foley and Murphy is expected to reprise his iconic role on a recurring status. The big step of course will be casting Aaron Foley…
I guess as long as Eddie Murphy is involved and reprising his role as Axel, I'm cool with it. It better have the theme song tho...
