Growing up in the 80s and 90s, most of us were massive fans of Eddie Murphy. I was no different. The star of the Beverly Hills Cop series was always on my list of “must meet” celebrities. Fast forward to the present day, and I've found myself face to face with the legend himself.
Speaking Eddie Murphy in Real Life
Eddie is one of those stars who's always been in the spotlight, as long as I can remember. Grasping the chance to chat with him was like a dream come true. What was more, this was at the press junket in Los Angeles for Netflix's Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.
The conversation with Murphy was brief but it was something to remember. He was as funny as ever, and he shared some pretty interesting tales about his on-screen character, Axel Foley.
The Growing Story of Axel Foley
According to Murphy, Axel Foley's character has developed a lot over time. When he first signed up for Beverly Hills Cop, Murphy had no idea it would grow into the franchise it is today. Axel Foley started as a renegade cop in Detroit, who is always ready to break the rules to get justice. But now he is more refined, smart and cunning, having moved to the glitzy and glamorous world of Beverly Hills. Murphy was clearly excited about how his character has evolved.
A Teaser for Murphy's Upcoming Flick
Besides Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Murphy also gave a sneak peek into his next film. The upcoming action movie, The Pickup, also stars Pete Davidson, and promises to be just as engaging as his previous works.
An Unforgettable Moment
The highlight of the interview, however, was when Murphy found out I had first watched Beverly Hills Cop at the tender age of seven. He found it amusing that I watched the R-rated movie, featuring strippers and nudity at such an early age. In his typical comedic style, he commented about how my seven-year-old mind must have been blown watching the film. It's a memory I'll cherish forever!
