None of the movie scripts were right it was trying to force the premise. I'd do the pilot, show up here and there.

What I'm trying to do now is produce a TV show starring Axel Foley's son, and Axel is the chief of police now in Detroit. In October 2011, Murphy discussed a possible fourth film, stating, 'They're not doing it. Harold Faltermeyer's ' Axel F', however, would definitely be returning for the proposed fourth installment, with Ratner quoted as saying 'It'll be back but it'll be a whole new interpretation.' On November 15, 2010, Ratner stated in an interview with MTV that there was still a possibility that they will make a fourth film, but that it wouldn't be 'anytime soon.' We're trying to figure out some important things, like where do we start? Is Axel retired? Is he in Beverly Hills? Is he on vacation? Does Judge Reinhold return as the loveable Billy Rosewood? Many questions to figure out, but I'm hoping to have a script before film disappears from our existence.' Although Murphy himself committed to the project, it was unconfirmed whether the series' other principal actors, Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Ronny Cox, or Bronson Pinchot would also return, though Ratner stated in late 2009 that he was trying to convince Reinhold and Ashton to reprise their roles. It's very difficult, especially since there were three before. In an interview with Empire magazine, Ratner stated 'I'm working very hard on the fourth. The script was eventually rejected, leaving Ratner to work on a new idea. Michael Brandt and Derek Haas were hired as screenwriters to improve on the existing script in July 2008 and completed a new script, under the working title Beverly Hills Cop 2009, which would see Foley return to Beverly Hills to investigate the murder of his friend Billy Rosewood. In May 2008, Rush Hour director Brett Ratner was officially named director, who promised the film would return under the series' standard 'R' rating, rather than as a rumored watered down PG-13. Murphy admitted one of his motivations for making a fourth Beverly Hills Cop film was to make up for the fact that the third film was 'horrible' and that 'he didn't want to leave (the series) like that'. In September 2006 a script, an amalgamation of several earlier drafts, was presented to Murphy who was reported to be 'very happy' with the outline which was described as an attempt to recapture the 'feel of the original'. It was re-announced in 2006, when producer Jerry Bruckheimer announced his intention to resurrect the film series, though he eventually gave up his option to produce the film, instead passing production duties to Lorenzo di Bonaventura.
