Tremendous sex symbol of the '90s, from
Baywatch
to her romance - erotic videos included - with Tommy Lee, the drummer of Mötley Crue,
Pamela Anderson
will return to the screen to recreate a classic of humorous cinema, the saga of
The Naked Gun
, which was very popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. She will do it with none other than action hero
Liam Neeson
, according to
The Hollywood Reporter
.
The original film, written and directed by
Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams and David Zucker
and based on their television series
Police Squad!
which lasted only six episodes, parodied crime show and movie clichés that had been ingrained in the audience's minds for decades. It centered on an inept and clueless detective named Frank Drebin, played by Leslie Nielsen, who somehow managed to solve the crimes and save his career.
Plot details are being kept under wraps, but it is known that Liam Neeson will play Frank Drebin. Pamela Anderson will play the love interest, similar to the role played in the original by Priscilla Presley, with a mix of sensuality and silliness.
Akiva Schaffer will direct the comedy, which has a script by Dan Gregor, Doug Mand and Schaffer. The trio was behind the popular Emmy-winning Disney+ film
Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers
.
Paramount scheduled the release for July 18, 2025.
