DETROIT (FOX 2) - Stunt driving, simulated car crashes, smoke effects, and maybe even some sparks are expected during the filming of a new movie in downtown Detroit.
According to a film notice that was posted by a reporter on Twitter, the upcoming movie "Beverly Hills: Axel F" is being filmed in Detroit over the next week. The film is being produced by Netflix.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley is an upcoming action comedy film that's staring Eddie Murphy as the fourth installment in the Beverly Hills cop series.
