Neeson Takes Over for Nielsen in ‘The Naked Gun’ Reboot

The beloved comic franchise gets a fresh update, with action star Liam Neeson stepping into the role of Frank Drebin Jr. in a new take on the classic Police Squad antics.

Fans of the iconic ‘Naked Gun‘ franchise can rejoice, as the beloved comedy series is set to make a triumphant return to the big screen, led by none other than action movie star Liam Neeson. After over three decades since the last installment, the zany exploits of the inept yet well-meaning Police Squad detectives will be revived for a new generation of moviegoers.

In a surprising casting move, Neeson will take on the mantle of Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the legendary character made famous by the late Leslie Nielsen in the original trilogy. While Neeson is best known for his intense roles in thrillers like ‘Taken’ and his portrayal of iconic characters like Ra’s Al Ghul in ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy, the actor has expressed excitement about venturing into full-blown comedy territory with ‘The Naked Gun’ reboot.

“Leslie Nielsen’s work in the ‘Naked Gun’ films is truly iconic, and it’s an honor to be able to pay tribute to his legacy,” Neeson shared in an exclusive interview. “I’m nervous, but also incredibly excited to bring a fresh perspective to this beloved franchise.”

Joining Neeson in the cast is ’90s icon Pamela Anderson, who will play Frank Drebin Jr.’s love interest, a role previously embodied by Priscilla Presley. The ensemble also includes rising stars like Paul Walter Hauser (‘Black Bird’) as Captain Ed Hocken, Kevin Durand (‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’), and WWE superstar Cody Rhodes.

At the helm of this comedic revival is Akiva Schaffer, best known as a member of the hilarious trio The Lonely Island, along with Andy Samberg and Jorma Taccone. Schaffer’s recent directorial effort, the critically acclaimed ‘Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers,’ showcased his talent for meta-detective humor, making him a perfect fit for the ‘Naked Gun’ universe.

While plot details remain tightly under wraps, it’s clear that this reboot will serve as a continuation of the original trilogy, allowing audiences to follow the misadventures of a new generation of the Drebin family. With a talented ensemble and the guidance of Schaffer’s comedic vision, the ‘Naked Gun’ reboot promises to honor the legacy of the franchise while injecting fresh laughs and surprises.

Scheduled for a theatrical release on July 1, 2025, the ‘Naked Gun’ reboot will face stiff competition in a crowded summer movie season. However, with its pedigree and the star power of Neeson leading the charge, this comedic revival has the potential to be a standout hit, bringing the beloved antics of Police Squad back to the forefront of pop culture.

As fans eagerly await further updates and the eventual release of the film, one thing is certain: the world of ‘The Naked Gun’ is about to get a whole lot more interesting with Liam Neeson at the helm, promising a comedy experience that will undoubtedly leave audiences in stitches.
