Comped 525 Posted September 29 4 hours ago, DCI Frank Burnside said: Did think he looked awful in the new Beverly Hills Cop. Espeically given he was in his mid 70s I remember reading that he had talked about doing another one, since Eddie was sure this one did well enough to greenlight a sequel? Was he actually signed on, or are they still working out the details of the film? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the end of last year when people started floating John Ashton, the musician on 2024 possibilities, I actually thought they were referring to the actor.

Loads and loads of credits - his IMDB is quite extensive and the latest faller from @Ulitzer95 list of Hitchcock stars mentioned on the Ideas etc Thread for 2025 - after Newhart - and that list probably needs a wee check. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow I had no idea he was dealing with parkinsons, and he was too young to be on my radar as a possible hit.. Was an avid watcher of baywatch, and always liked his character 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
