Paramount Pictures has officially dropped the teaser trailer for the much-anticipated reboot of The Naked Gun, a comedy franchise known for its slapstick humor, absurdly funny situations, and the iconic buffoonery of its police squad. This new update promises to continue the legacy of its predecessor while adding a fresh twist, with Liam Neeson stepping into the shoes of the bumbling yet endearing Lt. Frank Drebin Jr.
In this reboot, Neeson takes on the role of Drebin Jr., following in the footsteps of his legendary father, the original Lt. Frank Drebin, portrayed by the late Leslie Nielsen. The film’s teaser showcases Neeson’s comedic chops as he hilariously navigates the chaos of Police Squad, delivering deadpan one-liners and engaging in absurdly funny escapades. Known for his action-packed roles, Neeson’s transition to comedy is both unexpected and refreshingly entertaining, adding a new dimension to the beloved character.
The film also stars a dynamic ensemble cast, including Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, and Danny Huston. Directed by Akiva Schaffer, with a screenplay written by Dan Gregor, Doug Mand, and Schaffer himself, The Naked Gun reboot is rooted in the spirit of the original series, which was based on the popular TV show Police Squad! created by Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker.
Slated for release on August 1, 2025, The Naked Gun reboot promises to deliver a perfect blend of classic slapstick comedy and modern sensibilities. Fans of the franchise can look forward to a wild ride filled with outrageous antics, quirky characters, and, of course, the signature dry humor that has made The Naked Gun a timeless favorite. As the teaser suggests, this isn’t just another reboot—it’s a laugh-out-loud adventure that’s sure to leave audiences in stitches.
