Beverly Hills Cop Reboot Fancast

So i was watching the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy last night and thought about why they never remade them, the old movies are very awesome, with a good mix of action and comedy, i think a remake would be great, if handled well.

so heres my fancast

Axel Foley (Donald Glover)



Originally i went with Don Cheadle, but everyone was unhappy, no idea why, he's a great actor. so i changed Axel to Donald Glover from Community, i managed to watch an episode of this show and i thought he was very funny.


Det. William 'Billy' Rosewood (John Krasinski)



since i watched the first movie, i always thought John Krasinski would be a great Billy Rosewood, they guy is extremely funny in The Office and he seems like a great fit in this movie.

Det. Sgt. John Taggart (Adam Baldwin)



i chose Adam because in the original movie, Taggart was a bit of a hardass, Adam fits this role well, as he usually plays a hardass in roles like Casey on Chuck or Jayne on Firefly/Serenity, be he also has a funny side.


Jeannette 'Jenny' Summers (Liv Tyler)



i chose Liv Tyler because i think she is a great actress, although the character lisa isnt on screen that much as the other characters i think Liv would play her well


Victor Maitland (Michael Fassbender)



Michael Fassbender is an awesome actor, his role in Inglorious Basterds was really good, and his Magneto looks badass. i think he could play a great villain



Lt. Andrew Bogomil (Richard Roxburgh)



Richard is an awesome actor, he's done movies like Mission Impossible 2, Van Helsing and recently the awesome Sanctum. so i think he would be good as Andrew Bogmil.


as for a director i think Adam Mckay would be a great Director, He directed The Other Guys, so he is familiar with Action/Comedy Movies.



So what do you guys think?

I like the idea, but dude..
Could you actually have picked a more unfunny actor in the world to play Axel? lol
Eddie was at his prime as the funniest up-and-coming black comedian in the world back then.

Bohemiben - No, you're not 'THAT GUY'... I was about to say the same thing. This is the CBM website - 'COMIC BOOK Movie'. There has never been a comic book for Beverly Hills Cop, therefor this article is inappropriate for this website...

1) Surely CHRIS ROCK would have been the clear choice.

2) I don't really see the point, does it really need a reboot? Probably not.

3) Good job anyway, possible need some descriptions why you picked the certain actors.

I would have said Jamie Fox instead of Don Cheadle.

Dave Chappelle for Axel is a better choice. Cheadle is too old and not funny. The rest of the cast is decent I guess.

In the ´80s when they were planning Beverly Hills Cop movie it was supposed to be a serious action movie and they were planning Mickey Rourke and Sylvester Stallone to the lead role.
If someday they would make the remake (I dont know why they should thou) i think it would be interesting to see the serious version.
Then Don Cheadle would be great choice as Axel

For Axl, I would cast Damon Wayans, Jr. in the role, he is the right age for sure

LEAVE THE SERIES ALONE.....KEEP GOING WITH EDDIE MURPHY....HE NEEDS TO GET BACK INTO GROWN UP FILMS AND OUT OF DISNEY.

A REBOOT ON THIS FRANCHISE WILL TURN OUT WORSE THAN A-TEAM.

Axel Foley how about Brandon T Jackson

Brandon T Jackson as Axel Foley, he would definitely be able to replace Eddie Murphy as Axel
