Eddie Murphy is back in "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" ... and, it's gonna redeem the franchise after the third film bombed with critics and fans -- so says Bronson Pinchot.

The actor -- who's played the flamboyant fan-favorite Serge since the 1984 original -- tells TMZ 'Axel F' has the secret sauce that made the first two films '80s blockbusters ... namely, the entire OG cast is back in a story that's vintage buddy cop.

BP uses the metaphor of his beloved bird flying into a wall to describe the 'BHC3' flop -- but, the bird survived, and he says the series is mending in much the same way.

1:58 PM PT -- A lawyer for Fiona Harvey tells TMZ ... "The statements of George Galloway, a former Member of Parliament with his own agenda, which vaguely and generally claim that Ms. Harvey stalked him 'hundreds of times' forty years ago, has nothing whatsoever to do with what Netflix did to Ms. Harvey in 2024."

Fiona Harvey, the self-proclaimed inspiration for Netflix's "Baby Reindeer," has been hit with a new stalking allegation ... as British politician George Galloway has come forward as an alleged victim.

George stopped by "Piers Morgan Uncensored" and claimed Fiona stalked him during the '80s ... stating he chose to speak out after seeing FH on Piers' show last month.

Nicola Coughlan's haters aren't going to stop hating ... but, that's fine 'cause she's an inspiration to women everywhere who's not letting it get to her -- so says her costar.

Simone Ashley -- who's played Kate in the second and third seasons of the show -- recently answered questions about the hate her costar's received from people online who have criticized her body since her famous sex scene from the recently released third season of the show.

Ashley's pretty upfront ... telling festivalgoers in Monaco haters gonna hate, but it's not affecting Nicole -- assuring everyone she's very tough, and responding to all the hate with confidence and intelligence.

Jeff Ross says Tom Brady really is the GOAT for letting millions of people have a laugh at his expense ... telling TMZ Sports the future Hall of Famer deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for being such a good sport during his roast last month.

We caught up with "The RoastMaster General" out at LAX this week ... and tried to ask who he'd love to target next, considering Netflix's "Roast Of Tom Brady" was such a massive success.

But, Ross explained it's going to be tough to get any celeb to step up to the plate after seeing what happened to Brady ... which led him to praise the guy for taking everything on the chin.

Joey Chestnut's at the center of the biggest competitive eating controversy in over a decade, and now "Jaws" is speaking on camera for the first time since Major League Eating banned him from the Nathan's Hotdog eating contest.

But, there might still be a chance to compete!

Jason Oppenheim is opening the door for Christine Quinn to come back to his Netflix show "Selling Sunset" ... saying he's down with her returning, but the buck doesn't stop with him.

We got Jason in L.A. Thursday -- and our photog asked him if a recent reunion with Christine and other cast members is a sure sign she's gearing up to make a 'Sunset' comeback.

Jason tells us he would welcome Christine back with open arms and has no hard feelings ... but explains it's not his decision, rattling off the list of folks who would have to sign off on such a big move.

Joey Chestnut and his longtime nemesis Takeru Kobayashi are going head-to-head in a hot dog eating contest once again -- but it won't be part of the usual Fourth of July event ... it's a Labor Day extravaganza!!

The showdown is 15 years in the making -- the two last went at it in 2009 at the traditional Nathan's competition in Coney Island ... when Jaws beat Kobayashi to defend his mustard belt.

The timing of the announcement is pretty interesting -- on Tuesday, Major League Eating announced Chestnut was OUT of the Independence Day contest due to an endorsement deal he inked with a rival food company.

Miranda Derrick says the new Netflix doc that makes it look like she's in a cult is causing her a bunch of problems -- namely, death threats ... and she is laying some of the blame at her family's feet.

The TikTok star hopped on social media Monday and posted a video, claiming folks are sending her all sorts of nasty comments ... including threats of physical violence. She says things are to the point where she doesn't feel safe.

'Dancing For The Devil' is the popular new Netflix doc taking a look at Miranda, characterizing her and others involved with 7M Films as brainwashed sheep beholden to an alleged cult leader, Dr. Robert Shinn.

The alleged villain covered in Netflix's 'Dancing for the Devil' was the subject of two previous criminal investigations, but neither resulted in any charges ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us two sexual battery cases were filed against Robert Shinn and reported to LAPD in August 2023 -- which tracks with what was covered in the doc ... with some of his accusers coming forward and noting they'd gone to cops.

We're told one of the cases was filed by former 7M member Kylie Douglas, whose story was featured in the doc. Our sources say the LAPD conducted an investigation, and the case eventually landed at the L.A. City Attorney’s Office.

Former NXIVM sex cult member India Oxenberg says folks need to cut TikTok star Miranda Derrick some slack ... 'cause she may well be in a cult and not even realize she's been brainwashed.

India, who broke free from NXIVM after 7 years under the cult's spell, tells TMZ ... she's known about Miranda's alleged cult, 7M Films, for years and thinks it's likely Miranda doesn't fully understand the influence the group is exerting over her life.

Miranda denies 7M is a cult, and says she's not some mindless zombie under founder Robert Shinn's control -- pushing back against a narrative seen in the new "Dancing for the Devil" Netflix doc -- but India says groups like 7M and NXIVM have perfected the art of controlling communication with those on the outside.

Jake Paul will still face off against Mike Tyson in the ring ... the highly-anticipated boxing match has been rescheduled for November 15.

The bout will still go down at the home of the Dallas Cowboys -- AT&T Stadium in Arlington -- and air on Netflix.

5:26 PM PT -- A rep for Netflix tells TMZ ... "We intend to defend this matter vigorously and to stand by Richard Gadd's right to tell his story."

The woman believed to be the real-life inspiration behind the villain in "Baby Reindeer" is now taking Netflix to court -- claiming they defamed her ... and she's gunning for millions.

Fiona Harvey just filed a suit against the streaming giant -- and she's flat-out denying many of the actions Martha allegedly did in the limited series ... in which she's painted as an overly-obsessed stalker constantly hounding the main character, played by Richard Gadd.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Harvey alleges that Netflix created an easily accessible road map to allow viewers to track her down in real life and connect the dots to her identity.

"Selling Sunset" stars Emma Hernan and Chelsea Lazkani just washed up on the 'gram looking absolutely stunning in red and white bikinis. But, now it's on you ...

We know these besties are babes on a boat, but the question here is, Who'd You Rather?!

A new Netflix doc has made people believe that TikTok star Miranda Derrick is in a cult -- but she's calling BS ... and putting out a totally different narrative, suggesting she's just fine.

Miranda hopped online Tuesday to clap back at claims made in 'Dancing for the Devil' -- which characterizes her and others involved with 7M Films as brainwashed sheep that are beholden to an alleged cult leader ... but Miranda says that's simply not the case.

In a short clip on her IG Story Tuesday, Miranda first thanked everyone for their support since the 3-part doc dropped last week ... and then teased a lengthy written statement in the following slides, saying she couldn't spill all the tea due to legal reasons.

Jennifer Lopez has had a rough time lately with all the negativity in her life ... but she's coming back with a vengeance, scoring big streaming numbers with her new Netflix film.
