| Quote: | Liam Neeson to Star in Naked Gun Reboot
Liam Neeson is getting silly in a new reboot of the Naked Gun series. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the police-procedural spoof will be directed by the Lonely Island’s Akiva Schaffer and produced in part by Seth MacFarlane. Dan Gregor and Doug Mand (Chip ’n Dale: Rescue Rangers) wrote the script.
The Naked Gun movies originally starred Leslie Nielsen and were spun off from the one-season TV show Police Squad! Nielsen played Frank Drebin, a self-serious detective who has failed up through the ranks of the titular Police Squad. Once pegged as a dramatic actor, Nielsen pivoted to comedy starting with Airplane! Neeson has also occasionally devolved into self-parody, playing himself in an episode of Atlanta.
A reboot of the series was previously attempted by Office star Ed Helms, but it never made it to the screen. Presumably, the new version has been tailored to Neeson’s particular skill set. This currently untitled story from the files of Police Squad comes to theaters on July 28, 2025. |

| Quote: | Leslie Nielsen. Ed Helms. Ed Helms. Leslie Nielsen. About the same, right? Even if you don’t agree, you’ll get to see Helms take over Nielsen’s bumbling Frank Drebin character if Paramount’s remake of The Naked Gun franchise keeps progressing according to Variety.
Originally based on the 1982 ABC six-episode Police Squad! show—the TV version was cancelled after just six spoof-filled airings—the first Naked Gun movie hit theaters in 1988 and continued on with the goofily titled sequels The Naked Gun 2 ½: The Smell of Fear and Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult until ending its run in 1994.
Nielsen played a deadpanning Drebin, a role Helms will walk into a decade later after extensive comedy experience, both on the small screen in The Office and recently on a string of movies, including We’re the Millers, Stretch (2014), The Hangover trilogy and plenty more. We’ve seen display Helms Airplane-esque behavior with his roles, similar to how Nielsen played his part, so this move probably doesn’t come as a great shock.
We’ve no clue as to what the fourth installment will be named. And exactly which fraction the title will contain. |

A TV series with Axel's son plus there suppose to be 4th part in the making but it wasn't said that Eddy would have any major role in it.

All of them.

I'm expecting a lot of:
- fart jokes
- in-your-face sex jokes
- shit jokes
- racist jokes
and not one funny gag.
Don't let me down!

While Ed Helms ain't bad, he's not Leslie Nielsen. This is just a quick cash grab. 0/10 Will not watch.
