What happens

Lethal Weapon is an American buddy cop action-comedy media franchise created by Shane Black and owned by Warner Bros. Pictures. It focuses on two Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) detectives, Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh. The franchise consists of a series of four films released between 1987 and 1998 and a television series which aired from 2016 to 2019. The four films were directed by Richard Donner and also share many of the same core cast members, while the television series is a reboot with different actors. Although the first film was not explicitly a comedy, the later films and the television series gradually became comedic in nature. A proposed fifth installment had been in talks and development since 2007. The franchise generated $2 billion in box-office and merchandising revenue from 1987 to 1998. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
