Eddie and his character Axel Foley are practically synonymous, though it's been three decades since he last donned the Detroit Lions jacket in "Beverly Hills Cop III." Reflecting on his return to the role, Eddie quipped, "It felt like old man," he said. "I did 'Beverly Hills Cop' when I was 21. And I'm 63 now."

The "Beverly Hills Cop" series is as famous for its adrenaline-pumping action as it is for its comedy, but Eddie admitted that he's stepped back from performing his own stunts. This fourth installment features familiar faces from the series like John Ashton, Paul Reiser, and Bronson Pinchot, among others.

Eddie first skyrocketed to fame with the original 1984 "Beverly Hills Cop," followed by sequels in 1987 and 1994. For him, portraying Axel offers a chance to play a character that audiences deeply connect with.

Over the years, Eddiey, a father of ten, has made numerous family-friendly films. However, when it comes to movie nights with his youngest kids — Izzy Oona Murphy, eight, and Max Charles Murphy, five, whom he shares with fiancée Paige — his own films aren't their first choice.
