"Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" cast
In Netflix's "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," we'll see familiar faces beloved by fans and Axel's irreplaceable buddies who are great at solving cases: Billy Rosewood (played by Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton), as well as Jeffrey Friedman (Paul Reiser) and the audience favourite, Serge (Bronson Pinchot). An excellent move by the production was the involvement of well-known, high-profile actors like Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Kevin Bacon.
Netflix's "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F." what's it about?
Detective Axel Foley is back patrolling the streets of Beverly Hills. With his daughter, whose life is at risk, his new partner, and his old buddies Billy Rosewood and John Taggart, he decides to thwart a nefarious plot – and crank up the heat while doing so.
Axel is the typical rogue cop character who manages to win the audience's sympathy through his charm and wit, even as they root for him in his not-always-by-the-book actions. Public property damage and typical cinematic "thrills and spills" are his trademarks. It couldn't be any different in the latest installment of Axel's adventures. In the newly released trailer, the cop speeds through the city... on a snowplow.
So far, two more film sequels to "Beverly Hills Cop," with the first part from 1984 being the highest-rated and Oscar-nominated.
Premiere of "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" on July 3 on Netflix.
