Kevin Pollak has been cast in CBS’ Beverly Hills Cop pilot, from Shawn Ryan, Eddie Murphy and Sony Pictures TV. The hourlong project, a continuation of the movie franchise, centers around Axel Foley’s police officer son Aaron (Brandon T. Jackson), who takes down the criminal elements of the rich and famous in Beverly Hills. Pollak, repped by Buchwald/Fortitude and Evolution, will play Rodney Daloof, the irritating and incredibly risk-adverse in-house attorney for the Beverly Hills Police Department, a stickler for rules and a loud mouth. Like Jackson and Murphy, who will guest star in the pilot, Pollak comes from a standup background.

After watching Morton & Hayes, I was thinking about how it’s such a shame that Kevin Pollak will never be seen again. And now this. Great casting decision.
Eddie Murphy and now Kevin Pollak?? Send this one straight to series!
Hour long? Christ this is gonna fail. Bring back Reinhold
Unless Eddie Murphy re-ups to series regular, I don’t see this show getting a back-end pickup.
Better find room for Taggart and Rosewood!
Awesome! Love Kevin Pollak!
I hope Judge is the next casting announcement for this pilot…
Agreed! You CAN’T do the Beverly Hills Cop re-boot without a big part from the Judge. Not just a cameo either, I think the more consistency this show has from the original the better and better it is going to be! Plus Judge is super talented…hello Close Talker!
I guess if nothing else it will be chatted up on chat show
