Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024) will be directed by up-and-coming Belgian writer-director duo Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, winners of the Toronto Film Festival in 2015 for their all-black gangsta drama Black (2015). However, this will be their first action-comedy. The producer is Jerry Bruckheimer.
