Netflix hosts Beverly Hills Cop 4
Looks like viewers will finally see the long-awaited sequel to Beverly Hills Cop. Experienced moviegoers have been dreaming of a new film about Detroit cop Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) since the mid-90s. The dreams of fans of the franchise will come true thanks to the online service Netflix.The streaming platform has acquired the rights to create the fourth installment of the action comedy from Paramount Studios. The details of the deal are kept secret, but there is no doubt that it will be beneficial for both parties. Paramount's management will retain the rights to the original trilogy and receive a hefty sum for the sale of the fourth film. Unfortunately for Eddie Murphy fans, Hollywood studios have stopped seeing the actor as a box office magnet. In this regard, Paramount began to doubt that "Beverly Hills Cop 4" will pay for the costs of creation. Netflix bosses took a different perspective. Murphy recently starred in their biopic My Name Is Dolemite, which earned a fantastic 97% freshness on Rotten Tomatoes. The streaming giant believes that the actor's business is taking off. Netflix first offered Eddie a multimillion-dollar contract for a TV stand-up, and has now bought the rights to Beverly Hills Cop 4.  There were talks about the shooting of the fourth part back in the 90s, but the authors' plans were confused by the weak performance of the trickwell. The tape received devastating press reviews and earned only $ 119 million from a $ 50 million budget. We last wrote about the fourth Beverly Hills Cop in 2016, when Paramount entrusted Adil El Arbi and Bilal Fall with the director's chair. Insiders are still at a loss to say whether the Belgian duo will remain at the helm of the militant. But our foreign colleagues found out that Netflix will involve the producer of the first and second parts of Jerry Bruckheimer in the creation of the film. Earlier it became known that Eddie Murphy is preparing another pleasant surprise for nostalgic viewers - the sequel to the comedy "A Trip to America".
