A comedy classic returns with a new lead
Liam Neeson, at 72 years old and with a career marked by drama and action, now steps into the shoes of Frank Drebin Jr. The character is the son of the iconic lieutenant created by Leslie Nielsen, who immortalized the silly and hilarious humor of the original trilogy.
The Naked Gun became a phenomenon since its debut in 1988. Directed by David Zucker, it had two sequels and left memorable quotes that continue to circulate. This new installment will function as a reboot and sequel at the same time.

What does the trailer show?
The preview shows that the spirit of humor remains intact. Neeson, known for his seriousness, ventures into self-parody and adopts the ridiculous nods that defined the saga.
There are falls, exaggerations, out-of-place phrases, and a police atmosphere that doesn't take itself seriously. Everything suggests that fans of the original style will feel at home with this new installment.
A team with comedy experience
Akiva Schaffer, member of The Lonely Island and former Saturday Night Live, directs this new version. He is joined in the script by Dan Gregor and Doug Mand.
Additionally, Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy, joins as a producer. The mix of talents ensures a proposal that combines satire, rhythm, and nods to the nostalgic audience.
