New "Beverly Hills Cop" filming scenes in Detroit

• The crew is set to film today from 7am to 6pm in the alley between Shelby Street and Washington Boulevard from State Street to Grand River Avenue, according to a notice.
• And again on Wednesday and Thursday from 5pm to 5am at State Street between Washington to Griswold Street.

Why it matters: It's the fourth movie in the comedy series starring Eddie Murphy as Detroit police detective Axel Foley.

• The original 1984 Beverly Hills Cop featured an opening scene shot in Detroit showing since demolished landmarks.

What they're saying: The notice says, "Please be aware of simulated car crashes, smoke effects and sparks may occur."

• When asked if the crew needs extras, on-site coordinator Amanda Nye tells Axios she isn't able to comment.
