Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson are turning heads in a way fans have never seen before. The newly released trailer for the 'The Naked Gun' movie reboot, hitting theatres on 1st August, promises outrageous laughs, over-the-top action, and unexpected chemistry between its leads.
Directed by 'Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers' filmmaker Akiva Schaffer, this modern take on the classic crime-comedy franchise reimagines the absurd world of 'The Naked Gun' for a new generation. Liam Neeson takes centre stage as Frank Drebin Jr., the bumbling yet bold son of the legendary detective Leslie Nielsen in the classic crime-comedy hits of the '80s and '90s. This time, the baton is passed with a hilarious twist—and plenty of wild set pieces.
Pamela Anderson makes a scene-stealing entrance as the seductive and mysterious Beth, a femme fatale whose arrival sets off a string of wild and NSFW antics. Her character's dramatic plea for help kicks off a series of laugh-out-loud moments, including outrageous visual gags and tongue-in-cheek crime drama parody.
