Kevin Bacon shares his “disarming” experience working with Eddie Murphy for the first time: “I had to kind of stay on my toes”

Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F. star Kevin Bacon says he had a blast working with Eddie Murphy for the first time ever.

“It was great. He’s a very relaxed and focused and an immediate sort of actor, you know what I mean? He’s got a great, honest simplicity to the way that he approaches the scenes that is almost –  it’s disarming, you know, it’s like I had to kind of stay on my toes because he would just kinda look at me and just maybe throw something out there that I wasn’t even expecting,” Bacon tells GamesRadar+. “And it was great. I loved it. I loved our scenes together and I, I think they really work really well in the movie, so I’m very proud of that.”
