The amazing physical change Eddie Murphy, who returns to the 'Beverly Hills Cop' saga 30 years later
The iconic actor tops the list of the most viewed on Netflix with one of his most emblematic sagas.
Eddie Murphy has returned to play one of the most iconic roles of his career. This is Axel Foley, the protagonist of the emblematic film saga Beverly Hills Cop, who returns for the new installment available on Netflix.
What had been a trilogy until now incorporates a new feature film that has quickly become the most-watched on the platform. Follows Inspector Axel Foley, who returns to patrol Beverly Hills. When his daughter's life is in danger, she and Foley turn to a new partner and their old friends Billy Rosewood and John Taggart to uncover a conspiracy once and for all.
The plot focuses on Axel, who faces a threat against his family. This leads him to ally with new characters and others we had seen before. And it welcomes actors like Kevin Bacon, who joins the cast as Captain Cade Grant, an officer in the Beverly Hills police, as well as Paul Reiser and Bronson Pinchot, who return to their classic roles, adding a nostalgic touch to the film.
Now, thirty years after the last film, the 63-year-old actor is in a good moment, and many highlight how time has not affected him. Nostalgia often leads us to compare the past with the present idealizing what has already happened, but in some cases it serves to admire the evolution of some artists, as is the case here.
However, the actor has undergone a significant change that has been perceived by the audience.
A significant change
Since he started working as an actor, there was something about Murphy that caught the viewers' attention: his laughter. It has become so characteristic that many have noticed how it has been fading recently.
This has actually been a decision made by the actor himself, as he revealed in an interview, because he believed that "it was getting too much importance."
"In the 80s, I thought I didn't want to be known for being funny. But I realized that some people were imitating me and that if it happened, all they did was laugh," he said, emphasizing that he doesn't like the imitations of him and that is not how he is portrayed.
These imitations led him to change his way of laughing. "I forced myself to stop laughing, which is really unnatural," said the actor, who also stated that he no longer laughs like that.
