Eddie Murphy says he "forced" himself to ditch his signature laugh after people started "making too much of it." Asked by Kevin Polowy in an interview for CBR if he had opted to "retire" Axel’s laugh from the newly revived Beverly Hills Cop franchise, Murphy pointed out that this feature of the beloved character was not a creation but was instead an extension of himself.

The year was 1984. Synthesizers were all the rage in music. Big hair was in and Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy; 48 Hrs.) was the coolest cop around. He had all the jokes and, with the help of two Beverly Hills Cops named Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold; Fast Times at Ridgemont High) and John Taggart (John Ashton; Some Kind of Wonderful), solved all the crimes. Well...at least the ones that mattered to him. Forty years later Axel is still on the job and this time he has to solve the most personal crime yet. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F premieres on Netflix on July 3, 2024.
