Lethal Weapon

Lethal Weapon is an American buddy cop action-comedy media franchise created by Shane Black. It focuses on two Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) detectives, Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh. The franchise originally consisted of a series of four films released between 1987 and 1998, and later a television series which aired from 2016 to 2019. The first four films in the series were directed by Richard Donner and also share many of the same core cast members, while the television series recast the main roles with younger actors instead. Though the first film was not explicitly a comedy, the later films and the television series gradually became comedic in nature.

It stars Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, Chris Rock, Rene Russo, Gary Busey, Tom Atkins, and Jet Li.
