Paramount To Revamp Beverly Hills Cop?!
We just discovered from a very reliable source that among the ashes of Paramount Studios dropping the new film Beverly Hills Cop 4 from production status, we hear that there have been talks for them to reboot the franchise.
We discovered that Director Brett Ratner, who was on board to film Beverly Hills Cop 4 might be the man that Paramount will bring back to start the franchise all over again.
We also hear that if the franchise IS revamped, Paramount has a very short list of actors who they intend to play the new Axel Foley, and right now Brandon T. Jackson is among the very few who they like.
How did this develop you ask? Well, it seems that among the musical chairs that have been played over at Paramount the last couple of months, the new execs in charge of development and production did not like the negotiations that have been moving along with Eddie Murphy for Beverly Hills Cop 4. It turns out that now because of this the film is dead in the water. This was a result of negotiations between the studio and Murphy’s management, and it soured because Murphy’s demands were too high and Paramount felt that Murphy hasn’t opened up a number one film in years to command his salary ( which also includes several points on the gross and a percentage of the DVD sales). Paramount wanted Murphy to take a pay cut and after Murphy declined, the result was the new talks of revamping Beverly Hills Cop while Ratner is still potentially interested.
As we stated, Jackson is the studio favorite and their potential lead for the film, but we hear that this film is still in the extremely early stages and no offer has been made to anyone, nor has the script even been written.
Several points do arise from this story, such as Eddie Murphy doing the recent Press junket for Shrek 4 mentioning to several news outlets that he is coming back to the stage. Is this a move for Murphy to bring his comedic awareness back to the masses and to convince the studio that once that is done that he is still relevant? If you recall, when Murphy was the number 1 box office draw, he was also the number 1 comedian in the country on tour and breaking records for attendance. This move would make sense.
Up next for Murphy; we hear that a new script has been written and delivered for Nutty Professor 3, but there is still several other things to happen before the project is green lit for a production start date. Not to mention Murphy stated that he is preparing to hit the stage and make a comeback.
Brandon T. Jackson is currently in Atlanta filming Big Momma’s House 3 titled Big Momma’s: Like Father Like Son with Martin Lawrence, and he is getting offers for several other films, none of which can be confirmed yet.
More on this story as it develops.

The Wayans, Jamie Foxx & Don Cheadle All Land Projects On Fall TV!
The TBS network just released their show line up for the upcoming season, and we first discovered that The Wayans family is in the mix. Up first from The Wayans is a project titled The Black Family which is a animated series ab out a blended interracial family, the Blacks. The show will be executive produced by Keenan Ivory Wayans, Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans. No word yet if they will lend their voices to the show. Also involved in the show is executive producer/writer Ali LeRoi (of Everybody Hates Chris fame), executive producer/artist Todd Goldman, and executive producer Rick Alvarez from Ice Cube's Cube Vision camp.
We also discovered Jamie Foxx is also in the fall line-up with TNT as he will take a shot at dramatic TV as he will executive produce and write a new show titled Miss Philly, which will be set in the pristine suburbs and urban war zones of Philadelphia, where the mayor has hired the first African-American police commissioner. As you can imagine, chaos ensues when she takes over the new position.
Finally among all of the upfront news we heard, there is some big news for all of the Don Cheadle fans as we discovered that he will also be coming to TV. We hear that Cheadle will serve as the executive producer of an as-yet-untitled medical show set in 1971 Los Angeles, where a group of idealistic doctors open an urgent-care clinic in hopes of upholding the values that inspired them to become doctors. No word yet if he will be starring in the show but our sources said to expect him to make several guest appearances.

Comedian Thomas Ward Makes Comedy History In Adult Entertainment Industry!
We just discovered that another comedian has been able to create comedy history! Comedian Thomas Ward pulled off another brilliant Bill Cosby impression as he was able to jump from the normal boundaries of comedy with his impression and land in adult entertainment. This Cosby impression of his in the film Not The Cosby's was able to win an AVN Award (an Award given out to those in the Adult Entertainment industry) without having to perform a sex act in the film, and while being the first African American to take home this honor.
Ward was able to walk away with an Award for his "Non-Sex role" in the film. This was considered the "Year of the Parody" in Porn and Not the Cosby's won an a tie with the X-File's Parody.
The AVN Awards are currently airing on cable television on Showtime as this year's show was hosted by Comedy Central's Dave Atell, and also featured comedian and Margaret Cho who was also a presenter.
The film Not the Cosby's also won for Best Director. As stated previously, the Awards are currently being aired on Showtime.
