Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson Lead Naked Gun Reboot

The reboot of The Naked Gun stars Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr. and Pamela Anderson as his co-lead, Beth, in a film directed by Akiva Schaffer and produced by Seth MacFarlane. Neeson, typically known for dramatic and action roles, takes on a rare comedic part, stepping into the legacy of Leslie Nielsen. Anderson's casting marks her first major involvement with the franchise after nearly joining the 1994 film. The pair reportedly developed strong on-screen chemistry, described as both playful and intellectually engaging. The film promises the slapstick, goofy humor of the original trilogy, including wild sight gags, musical surprises, and improvisational comedy. The Naked Gun reboot is scheduled to open on August 1.
