CBS has given a pilot production commitment to a show revolving around the son of Axel Foley – the famous detective from the movie series.

The proposed series will follow Aaron Foley, Axel’s son, who has to deal with his father’s legacy while trying to catch the bad guys in ritzy Beverly Hills.

There’s no word as to who will play the part of Aaron, but Eddie Murphy, who played Axel in the file series will reprise his role in the pilot.

Eddie, who will also produce the pilot, could also possibly be a recurring character if the show gets picked up.

The show has been on the back burner for about a year while Shawn Ryan, creator of The Shield and Mr Murphy pitched the idea to various TV networks.

Shawn will co-produce and write the pilot alongside Eddie Murphy, but will the show be a hit? We’ll have to wait until next year to find out.
