‘Naked Gun’: Pamela Anderson Joins Liam Neeson led Reboot!!

According to Deadline, Pamela Anderson has found her next project, and it turns out it’s set to be next summer’s Naked Gun reboot. The actress will be a part of the project that already has Liam Neeson attached to it, as Paramount attempts to breathe new life into a timeless comedic franchise. Details regarding the plot of the new version of the story are tightly kept under wraps, but as the cast list for the reboot expands, it’s only a matter of time before the studio shares more information with the public. The legacy of David Zucker‘s unpredictable ideas will continue on the big screen next year.

The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! hit the big screen in 1988, and it followed Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) as he found himself in a very complicated situation when he was informed that he needed to keep the peace in Los Angeles because Queen Elizabeth II was about to visit the city. The movie was successful enough that it spawned two sequels, The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear and Naked Gun 33+1⁄3: The Final Insult. And now, it’s time for Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson to continue the franchise, in a reboot that promises to bring the series’ signature humor to modern audiences.

Anderson is known for portraying C.J. Parker over the course of countless episodes of Baywatch, with the character being one of the most beloved members of the team. In recent years, the performer has been seen in a wide variety of non-fictional television titles, including Heathrow: Britain’s Busiest Aiport and Match Game. Anderson is ready to return to scripted productions with the upcoming Naked Gun reboot, but details surrounding her character and role in the story are currently kept safely under wraps.

Who is Behind the ‘Naked Gun’ Reboot?

Considering how multiple comedy reboots have been successful in recent years, it was only a matter of time before someone attempted to bring Naked Gun back with a modern spin on the world that was originated in the Police Squad! television series. Akiva Schaffer was the filmmaker selected to direct the reboot, after the director worked on titles such as Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Saturday Night Live and a few episodes from Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Schaffer wrote the screenplay for Naked Gun alongside Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, who previously worked with the filmmaker in the adventure that followed Chip (John Mulaney) and Dale (Andy Samberg) as they investigate the kidnapping of a friend.
