Given all the rumours and misinformation flying around about Brett Ratner’s take on Beverly Hills Cop, he’s decided to speak out about the film’s tone, title and rating.
“It’s a hard R”, he promises MTV, dispelling ideas that he’ll be pumping out a toothless PG-13 version and raising hopes that it’ll be stuffed full of sweary Eddie Murphy goodness that might actually make us forget about Norbit.
And while it’s keeping him, it’s also not trying to be a fourth franchise entry; more a re-working of the original.
This part worries us, but let the Rat explain: “It’s a reinvention. I’m going to reintroduce it to a contemporary audience. I’m going to take the best of the first two films and put it into the new one.”
