Murtaugh was supposed to be 50 during the first movie, which ostensibly took place during Christmas of 1986.
The character would be 84 goddamned years old.

Obviously there's going to be a time travel element. Duh!

I have no idea what this story can even be about, but I'm in for Mel as Riggs.
Unless they try to do the family comedy shit they did in 4. Man that movie was bad. It was like they wanted to get a PG13 rating and then when they were going to have to make some cuts to get there they just said "**** it" and released it as an R so it was in a weird mushy middle that was just awful all around. But Mel is 65 and Glover is 75 - there's just no way to have them as cops in this thing, is there? Obviously they wouldn't be uniformed anyway. Even money says there's some bizarre woke element to it. Can't have a cop movie with extrajudicial killings these days (and that's pretty much the cornerstone of the Lethal Weapon franchise). So somehow it will be Riggs and Murtaugh in retirement somewhere when riots break out in the community over some police shooting and either it's them VS the cops or them trying to effectuate change within the force somehow. Y'know what? I've talked myself out of this. They're just going to piss me off. The climate simply doesn't exist for making a movie that properly honors these characters. Whatever happens will almost certainly take away from them. This movie could've been really good if it were made 10-15 years ago but yeah, I think the ship has sailed. And Gibson has to be Riggs for the movie to be worth a damn so it's probably time to close the book on this.
