RIP John Ashton
 

Actor John Ashton, known for the role of John Taggart in the Beverly Hills Cop series, including the recently released Axel F has passed at 76, also in roles Marvin Dorfler in Midnight Run, The Twilight Zone, King Kong Lives, Curly Sue, JAG, Brookside, King of the Hill, Law & Order SVU, and others. Good thing they got him to be around in one more Beverly Hills Cop when they did. Rest well John Ashton.

Damn. I just saw the 4th BHC movie last month. I'm glad they were able to reunite before he passed.

Saw news of this two days ago from a source but no online confirm until today sadly.

Man he was just in Beverly Hill Cop 4.

It's great that they got him in the new BHC flick - it would have stung had they dropped the ball and then this happens.

Yeah, there's no shame in it. Nobody really expected he'd be in BHC4 and yet he was.

There may not be any shame in it, but in hindsight it sure would've broken a lot of hearts had it not happened.
