Veteran editor Benedict Coulter, who cut the original trailer for the 1984 movie Beverly Hills Cop starring Eddie Murphy, has recreated the iconic trailer for Netflix's Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F. Netflix was so impressed with Coulter's style of making kick-ass teasers with unforgettable songs that it asked him to create a special trailer for the premiere of Axel F. Coulter lifted the voice-over work of the late Don LaFontaine from his trailer for Beverly Hills Cop II to create a throwback vibe for the new trailer. Despite initial hesitation from the director, Coulter's bombastic, music-filled style prevailed, capturing the essence of the original film. Coulter's journey in the world of trailer editing highlights the artistry and creativity required to create compelling promotional material. With nostalgia and excitement, Coulter brings back the magic of the 1984 classic with his new trailer for Axel F.
