Directed by Akiva Schaffer, Liam Neeson, Paul Walter Houser, Pamela Anderson, and Kevin Durand are the stars of The Naked Gun. A new comedy/crime/action movie based on the popular late 80s and early 90s films of the same name starring Leslie Nielsen.
I haven’t watched the original The Naked Gun movies. Namely, The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988) and The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991). Nevertheless, I remember seeing the poster artwork for one of the earlier films at least once before. A poster not too dissimilar to the above thumbnail.
After this promising teaser trailer, hopefully, the movie is worthwhile. Especially with a tagline as promising as ‘The law’s reach never stretched this far‘ to accompany the fun poster image above.
Are you also looking forward to The Naked Gun?
Liza Koshy, Danny Huston, Cody Rhodes, Michael Beasley, David Lengel, Busta Rhymes, Wilbur Fitzgerald, Lyon Beckwith, Sailor Luna Bunch, Princess Elmore and Carl Gilliard also star.
The Naked Gun Release Dates: August 1st, 2025 (US & UK)…
Happy Film Loving,

I love all the ‘punchlines’ people didn’t see coming.
Me too, friend. Me too! 🤓🥂
I highly recommend the Naked Gun trilogy. They’re hilarious as long as you’re in a parody mindset. This one looks just as funny, and the O.J. joke was perfect.
Thank you for the recommendation. I suspect that very specific mindset will set in soon. 🤓
Let’s hope for the best. It is interesting that the movie will make the parody of a lot of modern action movie and this is good. My only fear is the director that doesn’t seems someone at the same levels of the one who did the originals Naked Gun and in this kind of movie the directing is everything.
A good point you made there. May we all be very pleasantly surprised. 🤓🙏
Ah, those original Naked Gun movies were fun! I’ve seen them several times as a kid. Along with Airplane! (1980) and Hot Shots (1991), also Hot Shots! Part Deux (1993), Top Secret! (1984) and Airplane II: The Sequel (1982).
The silly comedy/spoofing of other genre movies then took over the Scary Movie series and similar.
Some great titles you mentioned there. 😁 Good to know that the silliness in the titles matched the films.
These movies are always fun, just what we need these days!
Such truth you speak. 😊
Leslie Nielsen was the master of deadpan humor. I’m curious what his secret was. Bc I don’t think anyone else can pull it off the way he did. But I’m happy to ‘ride along’ for this one.
I look forward to watching Nielsen’s magic up close. Perhaps I’ll see something of how he did it. 🤓
