Back in June of last year, Paramount Pictures announced that it had dusted off its plans for a fourth instalment in the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, tapping Belgian writer-directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (Black) to helm the newest chapter of the action-comedy series.
Since then, we’ve heard very little about their progress on the film, however Joblo is reporting that the duo recently made an appearance on a Dutch talk show, where they revealed that they were looking at making the film on a $50 million budget and shooting in Detroit.
Furthermore, they said that the film would see Eddie Murphy’s Axel Foley as a seasoned Beverly Hills detective, who finds himself clashing with a hardened cop from Detroit. The filmmaker then went on to suggest that they were looking at Tom Hardy and Channing Tatum for the role.
