Eddie Murphy Pitching Beverly Hills Cop Series

Eddie Murphy and Shawn Ryan, creator of "The Shield", are currently trying to pitch a new Beverly Hills Cop series. The show is said to be a sequel to the franchise, and will occasionally feature Murphy making guest star appearances.

The premise of the show will be similar to the films, but this time Axel Foley's son will be the one heading out to Beverly Hills to try to escape the shadow of his father.

The show has been pitched to ABC and Fox so far, and tomorrow, CBS and NBC are slated to meet with Murphy and Ryan. Reports say that the series is highly likely to be picked up.
